Q.

A body cools in a surrounding which is at a constant temperature of θ0. Assume that it obeys Newton's law of cooling. Its temperature θ is plotted against time t. Tangents are drawn to the curve at the points Pθ=θ2 and Qθ=θ1. These tangents meet the time axis at angles of ϕ2 and ϕ1, as

Detailed Solution

 For θt plot, rate of cooling =dθdt= slope of the curve. 

 At  P,dt=tanϕ2=k(θ2θ0), where k= constant. 

 At  Q, dθdt=tanϕ1=kθ1θ0

tanϕ2tanϕ1=θ2θ0θ1θ0
