Which of the following graph is best explanation of cooling of hot water with time?

A
B
C
D
Answer
Explanation

Solution

According to Newton(s) law of cooling. The

temperature difference

ΔT=T2T1=ceKt\Delta T = T_{2} - T_{1} = ce^{- Kt} ….(i)

Where c and K are positive constants.

From the above expression the temperature

difference is exponentially decreasing with time.

Hence the curve (3) is correct option.
