For a system where Newton's law of cooling is applicable,the initial rate of cooling is $R \ ^\circ C/sec$. Find the time when the temperature difference $\Delta T_0$ (initial temperature difference) is reduced to half.

  • A
    $\frac{\Delta T_0}{2R}$
  • B
    $\frac{2\Delta T_0}{R}$
  • C
    $\frac{\ln(2) \cdot \Delta T_0}{R}$
  • D
    $\frac{\Delta T_0}{\ln(2)R}$
