Hi all,
So after a few drinks in the pub the discussion segway'd into the usual random and rubbish.
One thing I thought about randomly is this:
If you have a room of 25oC ambient temperature, a glass of water at 10oC and a glass of water at 40oC, will the cold water heat to the ambient temperature at the same rate as the hot water will cool to the ambient temperature?
This assumes that the glasses are in the same hypothetical location in the room, using the same glass and the same liquid.
I dont have a physics / 'science' background so i couldnt really figure out either or neither so was hoping some of the brainier gentlemen on here could help
