An ordinary body cools from $4\theta$ to $3\theta$ in $t$ minutes. The temperature of the body after the next $t$ minutes is (Assume Newton's law of cooling and room temperature as $\theta$).

$A$ 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.
