Assuming Newton's law of cooling to be valid,a body at temperature $50^{\circ} C$ in a surrounding of temperature $20^{\circ} C$ achieves a steady state with the help of a $100 \ W$ heater. If the same body has a temperature of $35^{\circ} C$ in the same surrounding,then the power of the heater required to maintain a steady state is ........ $W$.

Two identical beakers $A$ and $B$ contain equal volumes of two different liquids at $60\,^oC$ each and are left to cool down. The liquid in $A$ has a density of $8 \times 10^2\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $2000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$,while the liquid in $B$ has a density of $10^3\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $4000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$. Which of the following best describes their temperature versus time graph schematically? (Assume the emissivity of both the beakers to be the same.)

Newton's law of cooling is used in the laboratory for the determination of the ...........

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of equal masses,surface area,and emissivity are cooling under Newton's law of cooling from the same initial temperature. Their cooling curves are represented by the graph. If $\theta$ is the instantaneous temperature of the body and $\theta_0$ is the temperature of the surroundings,then the relationship between their specific heats $S_A$ and $S_B$ is:
