A hot liquid in beaker at 80^(@)C cools down to 70^(@)C in 2 minutes in an atmosphere of 30^(@)C temperature, then time taken to cool it down from 60^(@)C to 50^(@)C is . . . . . . ..

Answer»

240
360
480
216

Solution :TEMPERATURE of surroundings `T_(s)=30^(@)C`
Average temperature in SITUATION - 1
`T_(1)=(80+70)/(2)=75^(@)C`
Average temperature in situation - 2
`T_(2)=(60+50)/(2)=55^(@)C`
According to Newton.s COOLING rate,
`(dT)/(dt)=K.(T-T_(s))`
`:.(dT)/(K.)=(T-T_(s))dt`
But `(dT)/(K.)` is constant
`:.(T-T_(S))dt="constant"`
`:.(T_(1)-T_(s))t_(1)=(T_(2)-T_(s))t_(2)`
`:.t_(2)=((T_(1)-T_(s))/(T_(2)-T_(s)))t_(1)`
`=((75-30)/(55-30))2xx60`
`=(45)/(25)xx120`
`:.t_(2)=216s`
