The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use Newton's Law of Cooling. According to this law, the rate of change of temperature of a body is proportional to the difference between its temperature and the temperature of the surroundings. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Initial temperature of the body, \( \theta_1 = 80^\circ C \) - Final temperature of the body after 10 minutes, \( \theta_2 = 60^\circ C \) - Surrounding temperature, \( \theta_s = 30^\circ C \) - Time interval, \( t = 10 \) minutes 2. **Apply Newton's Law of Cooling:** The formula for Newton's Law of Cooling is given by: \[ \frac{\theta_1 - \theta_2}{t} = \alpha \left( \frac{\theta_1 + \theta_2}{2} - \theta_s \right) \] Where \( \alpha \) is the cooling constant. 3. **Calculate the left side of the equation:** \[ \theta_1 - \theta_2 = 80 - 60 = 20^\circ C \] Therefore, \[ \frac{20}{10} = 2 \] 4. **Calculate the average temperature:** \[ \frac{\theta_1 + \theta_2}{2} = \frac{80 + 60}{2} = \frac{140}{2} = 70^\circ C \] 5. **Substitute the values into the equation:** \[ 2 = \alpha \left( 70 - 30 \right) \] Simplifying gives: \[ 2 = \alpha \cdot 40 \] 6. **Solve for \( \alpha \):** \[ \alpha = \frac{2}{40} = \frac{1}{20} \text{ min}^{-1} \] 7. **Now, calculate the temperature after the next 10 minutes:** We now consider the new initial temperature \( \theta_2 = 60^\circ C \) and let the final temperature after the next 10 minutes be \( \theta \). Using the same formula: \[ \frac{60 - \theta}{10} = \alpha \left( \frac{60 + \theta}{2} - 30 \right) \] 8. **Substituting \( \alpha \) into the equation:** \[ \frac{60 - \theta}{10} = \frac{1}{20} \left( \frac{60 + \theta}{2} - 30 \right) \] 9. **Simplifying the right side:** \[ \frac{60 - \theta}{10} = \frac{1}{20} \left( \frac{60 + \theta - 60}{2} \right) = \frac{1}{20} \left( \frac{\theta}{2} \right) = \frac{\theta}{40} \] 10. **Cross-multiply to solve for \( \theta \):** \[ 40(60 - \theta) = 10\theta \] \[ 2400 - 40\theta = 10\theta \] \[ 2400 = 50\theta \] \[ \theta = \frac{2400}{50} = 48^\circ C \] ### Final Answer: The temperature of the body after the next 10 minutes will be \( 48^\circ C \).

To solve the problem, we will use Newton's Law of Cooling. According to this law, the rate of change of temperature of a body is proportional to the difference between its temperature and the temperature of the surroundings. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Initial temperature of the body, \( \theta_1 = 80^\circ C \) - Final temperature of the body after 10 minutes, \( \theta_2 = 60^\circ C \) - Surrounding temperature, \( \theta_s = 30^\circ C \) ...
