The temperature of a body in air falls from $40^{\circ} \text{C}$ to $24^{\circ} \text{C}$ in $4 \text{ minutes}$. The temperature of the air is $16^{\circ} \text{C}$. The temperature of the body in the next $4 \text{ minutes}$ will be $:$

$A$ body cools in a surrounding which is at a constant temperature of $\theta_0$. Assuming 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 $A(\theta = \theta_1)$ and $B(\theta = \theta_2)$. These tangents meet the time-axis at angles $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ as shown in the graph. Then:
