Question

An object, heated up to 80 0C and kept in an environment of 30 0C, the rate of temperature fall ofinitial temperature is 5 0C s-1.If the environmental temperature is reduced by 10 0C, What is therate of temperature fall of initial temperature.

Solution

The question seems to be based on Newton's Law of Cooling, which states that the rate of change of temperature of an object is proportional to the difference between its own temperature and the ambient temperature, i.e., the temperature of its surroundings.

However, the question as stated does not provide enough information to answer it. According to Newton's Law of Cooling, the rate of temperature change depends not only on the difference between the object's temperature and the ambient temperature, but also on the specific heat capacity of the object and its surface area, among other factors.

Without this information, we cannot calculate the new rate of temperature fall if the environmental temperature is reduced by 10 0C.

If we assume that all other factors remain constant, then we can say that the rate of temperature fall will increase if the environmental temperature is reduced, because the difference between the object's temperature and the ambient temperature will be greater. But we cannot calculate the exact rate without more information.
