The correct option is B After 10:00 pm
At 5:00 pm, temperature = 10oC
Given that the temperature decreases by 2oC/hour.
At 6:00 pm,
Temperature = 10−2=8oC
At 7:00 pm,
Temperature = 8−2=6oC
At 8:00 pm,
Temperature = 6−2=4oC
At 9:00 pm,
Temperature = 4−2=2oC
At 10:00 pm,
Temperature = 2−2=0oC
So, objects start to freeze after 10:00 pm as the temperature reaches 0oC at 10:00 pm.
