In a room, where the temperature is 300C, a body cools from 610C to 590C in 4 min. The time taken by the body to cool from 510C to 490C will be [MP PMT 2013)

a
4 min
b
5 min
c
6 min
d
8 min

detailed solution

Correct option is C

According to Newton's law of cooling,61−594=K61+592−30⇒ 24=K×30 Similarly, 51−49t=K51+492−30⇒ 2t=K×20Solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we gett = 6 min
