Question

A container cools from 80 to 75 in 15 minutes how long will it take for the container to cool from 50 to 45?

Answer 1

It depends on the temperature of its environment. If the environment is much, much colder, it will take slightly more than 15 minutes. The warmer the environment, the longer it will take for it to cool. Under everyday conditions, it could be several hours if the environment is in the 42 to 44 range. If the environment is 45 or warmer, the container will never cool to 45.

Answer 2

15 minutes also...
