When a hot body warms a cool one, are their temperature changes equal in magnitude?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No.
`m_1s_1(T_1-T_2)=M_2s_2(T-T_2)`
`(T_1-T)/(T-T_2)=(m_2s_2)/(m_2s_1)`
If `m_1s_1nem_2s_2`, then, `T_1-TneT-T_2`

Newton’s law of cooling says that the rate of cooling of a body is proportional to the temperature difference between the body and its surrounding when the difference in temperature is small. (a) Will it be reasonable to assume that the rate of heating of a body is proportional to temperature difference between the surrounding and the body (for small difference in temperature) when the body is placed in a surrounding having higher temperature than the body? (b) Assuming that our assumption made in (a) is correct estimate the time required for a cup of cold coffee to gain temperature from 10^(@)C to 15^(@)C when it is kept in a room having temperature 25^(@)C . It was observed that the temperature of the cup increases from 5^(@)C to 10^(@)C in 4 min

An engine runs between a reservoir at temperature 200 K and a hot body which is initially at temperature of 600 K. If the hot body cools down to a temperature of 400 K in the process, then the maximum amount of work that the engine can do (while working in a cycle) is (the heat capacity of the hot body is 1 J/K)
