Solution

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 = 102=8oC

At 7:00 pm,
Temperature = 82=6oC

At 8:00 pm,
Temperature = 62=4oC

At 9:00 pm,
Temperature = 42=2oC

At 10:00 pm,
Temperature = 22=0oC

So, objects start to freeze after 10:00 pm as the temperature reaches 0oC at 10:00 pm.
