Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
According to Newton’s law of cooling in first case,$ \frac{80-50}{5}=K[ \frac{80+50}{2}-20 ] $ ?..(i) in second case,$ \frac{60-30}{t}=k[ \frac{60+30}{2}-20 ] $ (ii) Dividing equation (i) by (ii) we get, $ \frac{t}{2}=\frac{45}{25} $
Therefore $ t=9 $ min.
