$A$ cup of coffee cools from $90^{\circ} C$ to $80^{\circ} C$ in $t$ minutes when the room temperature is $20^{\circ} C$. The time taken by the similar cup of coffee to cool from $80^{\circ} C$ to $60^{\circ} C$ at the same room temperature is $:$

For a small temperature difference between the body and the surroundings,the relation between the rate of loss of heat $R$ and the temperature of the body $\theta$ is depicted by:

$A$ body cools in $7$ minutes from $60^\circ C$ to $40^\circ C$. What time (in minutes) does it take to cool from $40^\circ C$ to $28^\circ C$, if its surrounding temperature is $10^\circ C$? (Newton's law of cooling holds good)

$A$ body cools from a temperature $60\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ to $40\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ in $10$ minutes. The room temperature is $20\,^{\circ}\text{C}$. Assume that Newton's law of cooling is applicable. The temperature of the body at the end of the next $10$ minutes will be......... $^{\circ}\text{C}$.
