Two bottles $A$ and $B$ have radii $R_{A}$ and $R_{B}$ and heights $h_{A}$ and $h_{B}$ respectively,with $R_{B}=2 R_{A}$ and $h_{B}=2 h_{A}$. These are filled with hot water at $60^{\circ} C$. Consider that heat loss for the bottles takes place only from side surfaces. If the time the water takes to cool down to $50^{\circ} C$ is $t_{A}$ and $t_{B}$ for bottles $A$ and $B$,respectively,then $t_{A}$ and $t_{B}$ are best related as:

  • A
    $t_{A}=t_{B}$
  • B
    $t_{B}=2 t_{A}$
  • C
    $t_{B}=4 t_{A}$
  • D
    $t_{B}=t_{A} / 2$

$A$ body takes $10$ minutes to cool down from $62^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$. If the temperature of the surrounding is $26^{\circ}C$,then in the next $10$ minutes,the temperature of the body will be ......... $^{\circ}C$.

Consider two hot bodies $B_1$ and $B_2$ which have temperatures $100^oC$ and $80^oC$ respectively at $t = 0$. The temperature of the surroundings is $40^oC$. The ratio of the respective rates of cooling $R_1$ and $R_2$ of these two bodies at $t = 0$ will be

$A$ container with $1 \ kg$ of water is kept in sunlight, which causes the water to get warmer than the surroundings. The average energy per unit time per unit area received from sunlight is $700 \ W \ m^{-2}$ and it is absorbed by the water over an effective area of $0.05 \ m^2$. Assuming that the heat loss from the water to the surroundings is governed by Newton's law of cooling, the difference (in $^{\circ}C$) in the temperature of water and the surroundings after a long time will be. . . . . . . . (Ignore the effect of the container, and take the constant for Newton's law of cooling $k = 0.001 \ s^{-1}$, Heat capacity of water $s = 4200 \ J \ kg^{-1} \ K^{-1}$)
