$A$ 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:

$A$ bowl filled with very hot water cools from $98^\circ C$ to $86^\circ C$ in $2$ minutes when the room temperature is $22^\circ C$. How long will it take to cool from $75^\circ C$ to $69^\circ C$?

$A$ hot body placed in air cools down to a lower temperature. The rate of decrease of temperature is proportional to the temperature difference from the surrounding. The body loses $60 \%$ and $80 \%$ of the maximum heat it can lose in time $t_1$ and $t_2$ respectively. The ratio $t_2 / t_1$ will be

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

Two hot bodies $A$ and $B$ have temperatures $100^{\circ}C$ and $80^{\circ}C$ respectively. The surrounding temperature is $40^{\circ}C$. The ratio of their rates of cooling $R_1 : R_2$ at $t = 0$ is:
