Solution

Dear Student,

According to newton law of cooling rate of cooling is depend on the temperature difference between the surrounding and the body.
-dθdt=kθ-θsθs: it is the temperature of surrounding. ki s a constant,-dθdt is the rate of cooling.and θ is the temperature of body.R=kθ-θsthis is the simple linear eqn if we plot the graph with θ then we got straight line with slope k and intercept at x axis at θ=θs.Regards
