The rate of loss of heat from a body cooling under conditions of forced convection is proportional to its $(A)$ heat capacity $(B)$ surface area $(C)$ absolute temperature $(D)$ excess of temperature over that of surrounding. State which of the following is correct:

According to Newton's law of cooling,the rate of cooling of a body is proportional to $(\Delta \theta )^n$,where $\Delta \theta$ is the difference of the temperature of the body and the surroundings,and $n$ is equal to

$A$ body takes $4$ minutes to cool from $100^{\circ}C$ to $70^{\circ}C$. To cool from $70^{\circ}C$ to $40^{\circ}C$ it will take ........ $\text{min.}$ (room temperature is $15^{\circ}C$)

$A$ hollow copper sphere $S$ and a hollow copper cube $C$,both with negligible thin walls of the same surface area,are filled with water at $90^{\circ}C$ and allowed to cool in the same environment. The graph that correctly represents their cooling is:

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.)

What is Newton's law of cooling used to determine in a laboratory?
