(c) $\frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1}}} = \frac{{{\lambda _{{m_1}}}}}{{{\lambda _{{m_2}}}}} = \frac{{1.75}}{{14.35}} \Rightarrow {T_2} = \frac{{1.75}}{{14.35}} \times 1640 = 200\;K$

    A body cools in a surrounding which is at a constant temperature of ${\theta _0}$. Assume that it obeys Newton's law of cooling. Its temperature $\theta $ is plotted against time $t$ . Tangents are drawn to the curve at the points $P(\theta = {\theta _1})$ and $Q(\theta = {\theta _2})$. These tangents meet the time axis at angles of ${\varphi _2}$and ${\varphi _1}$, as shown
