10-2.Transmission of Heat
medium

The temperature of a body falls from $62^oC\, to\, 50^oC$ in $10$ minutes. If the temperature of the surroundings is $26^oC$, the temperature in next $10$ minutes will become  ...... $^oC$

A

$42$

B

$40$

C

$56$

D

$55$

Solution

(a) $\frac{{62 – 50}}{{10}} = K\left( {\frac{{62 + 50}}{2} – 26} \right)$==> $\frac{6}{5} = K \times 30$

==> $K = \frac{1}{{25}}$
And, $\frac{{50 – \theta }}{{10}} = \frac{1}{{25}}\left( {\frac{{50 + \theta }}{2} – 26} \right)$

==> $\theta = 42^\circ C$.
