$A$ body cools in a surrounding which is at a constant temperature of $\theta_0$. Assume that it obeys Newton's law of cooling. Its temperature $\theta$ is plotted against time $t$. Tangents are drawn to the curve at the points $P(\theta = \theta_2)$ and $Q(\theta = \theta_1)$. These tangents meet the time axis at angles of $\varphi_2$ and $\varphi_1$,as shown in the figure.
