Question
If a piece of metal is heated to temperature θ and then allowed to cool in a room which is at temperature θ0 the graph between the temperature T of the metal and time t will be closed to :
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution

By Newton′s Law of cooling
T = TS + (TH - TS)e-kt
TS → Temp. of surrounding
TH → Temp. of body at t = 0
K → constant
T → Temp. of body at time t
So graph is
