A hot body, obeying Newton's law of cooling is cooling down from its peak value $80\,^oC$ to an ambient temperature of $30\,^oC$ . It takes $5\, minutes$ in cooling down from $80\,^oC$ to $40\,^oC$. ........ $\min.$ will it take to cool down from $62\,^oC$ to $32\,^oC$ ? (Given $ln\, 2\, = 0.693, ln\, 5\, = 1.609$)

From $Newton's\,law$ of cooling,
$t = \frac{1}{k}{\log _e}\left( {\frac{{{\theta _2} - {\theta _0}}}{{{\theta _1} - {\theta _0}}}} \right)$
From question and above equation,
$5 = \frac{1}{k}{\log _e}\frac{{\left( {40 - 30} \right)}}{{\left( {80 - 130} \right)}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,...\left( 1 \right)$
$And,t = \frac{1}{k}{\log _e}\frac{{\left( {32 - 30} \right)}}{{\left( {62 - 30} \right)}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,...\left( 2 \right)$
Dividing equation $(2)$ by $(1)$,
$\frac{t}{5} = \frac{{\frac{1}{k}{{\log }_e}\frac{{\left( {32 - 30} \right)}}{{\left( {62 - 30} \right)}}}}{{\frac{1}{k}{{\log }_e}\frac{{\left( {40 - 30} \right)}}{{\left( {80 - 30} \right)}}}}$
On solving we get, time taken to cool down from ${62^ \circ }C\,to\,{32^ \circ }C,$
$t=8.6\,minutes.$
