Hot water is kept in a thermally insulated closed container. It takes $T_1 \, min$ for the temperature to drop from $75^{\circ}C$ to $70^{\circ}C$,$T_2 \, min$ to drop from $70^{\circ}C$ to $65^{\circ}C$,and $T_3 \, min$ to drop from $65^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$. Then:

  • A
    $T_1 = T_2 = T_3$
  • B
    $T_1 < T_2 < T_3$
  • C
    $T_1 > T_2 > T_3$
  • D
    $T_1 < T_2 > T_3$
