A 200\,g sample of water at \(80^{\circ}\text{C}\) is placed in a container that loses heat to the surroundings (\(25^{\circ}\text{C}\)) at a rate \(P = k\,(T-25)\) with \(k = 0.05\,\text{W\,^{\circ}C^{-1}}\). The specific heat capacity of water is \(c = 4.18\,\text{J\,g^{-1}\,^{\circ}C^{-1}}\). Assuming no phase change, find the temperature of the water after \(10\) minutes.

Answer Options

A. Approximately \\(77.3^{\\circ}\\text{C}\\) after 10 minutes.
B. Approximately \\(75.0^{\\circ}\\text{C}\\) after 10 minutes.
Correct Answer C. Approximately \(78.1^{\circ}\text{C}\) after 10 minutes.
D. Approximately \\(80.5^{\\circ}\\text{C}\\) after 10 minutes.
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
Approximately \(78.1^{\circ}\text{C}\) after 10 minutes.
