The temperature of a body falls from \(50^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) to \(40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) in 10 minutes. If the temperature of the surroundings is \(20^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), then the temperature of the body after another 10 minutes will be:
1. \(36.6^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)          
2. \(33.3^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)
3. \(35^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)             
4. \(30^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\)

Hot coffee in a mug cools from \(90^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) to \(70^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) in 4.8 minutes. The room temperature is \(20^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\). Applying Newton's law of cooling, the time needed to cool it further by \(10^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) should be nearly:

1. 4.2 minute 2. 3.8 minute
3. 3.2 minute 4. 2.4 minute

A body cools from a temperature of \(3T\) to \(2T\) in \(10\) minutes. The room temperature is \(T\). Assuming that Newton's law of cooling is applicable, the temperature of the body at the end of the next \(10\) minutes will be:

1. \(\frac{7}{4}T\) 2. \(\frac{3}{2}T\)
3. \(\frac{4}{3}T\) 4. \(T\)

Consider two hot bodies, B1 and B2 which have temperatures of \(100^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and \(80^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) respectively at t=0. The temperature of the surroundings is \(40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\). The ratio of the respective rates of cooling R1 and R2 of these two bodies at t = 0 will be:
1. R1:R2=3:2
2. R1:R2=5:4
3. R1:R2=2:3
4. R1:R2=4:5

1. less than 5 minutes.
2. equal to 5 minutes.
3. more than 5 minutes.
4. can't say anything as the temperature of the surroundings is not known.
