    A metal sphere cools at the rate of \[3{}^\circ C/min\] when its temperature is \[50{}^\circ C\]. Its rate of cooling when its temperature is \[40{}^\circ C\] and the temperature of surrounding is \[25{}^\circ C\] is

    A) \[1.3{}^\circ C/min\]                                      

    B) \[1.4{}^\circ C/min\]

    C) \[1.5{}^\circ C/min\]

    D) \[1.8{}^\circ C/min\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    \[{{\left( \frac{\text{d }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }}{\text{dt}} \right)}_{\text{1}}}\text{=K(}{{\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }}_{\text{1}}}\text{-}{{\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }}_{\text{0}}}\text{)}\]...(i)                 \[{{\left( \frac{\text{d }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }}{\text{dt}} \right)}_{2}}\text{=K(}{{\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }}_{2}}\text{-}{{\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }}_{\text{0}}}\text{)}\]...(ii)                 \[\therefore \]\[\frac{{{(d\theta /dt)}_{1}}}{{{(d\theta /dt)}_{2}}}=\frac{{{\theta }_{1}}-{{\theta }_{2}}}{{{\theta }_{2}}-{{\theta }_{0}}}=\frac{50-25}{40-25}\]                 \[\frac{3}{{{(d\theta /dt)}_{2}}}\frac{25}{15}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]\[\,{{\left( \frac{d\theta }{dt} \right)}_{2}}={{1.8}^{0}}c/\min \]
