Find the time required for an object to cool from 300F300^{\circ} \mathrm{F} to 250F250^{\circ} \mathrm{F} by evaluating

t=10ln22503001T100dTt=\frac{10}{\ln 2} \int_{250}^{300} \frac{1}{T-100} d T

where tt is time in minutes.

Evaluate the given integral

t=10ln(2)[lnT100]250300=10ln(2)[ln300100]ln250100]=10ln(2)[ln(200)ln(150)]=10ln(2)[ln200150]=10ln(2)ln(43)4.15 min\begin{aligned} t=&\dfrac{10}{\ln(2)}\bigg[\ln|T-100|\bigg]_{250}^{300}\\ =&\dfrac{10}{\ln(2)}\bigg[\ln|300-100]-\ln|250-100|\bigg]\\ =&\dfrac{10}{\ln(2)}\bigg[\ln(200)-\ln(150)\bigg]\\ =&\dfrac{10}{\ln(2)}\bigg[\ln\dfrac{200}{150}\bigg]\\ =&\dfrac{10}{\ln(2)}\ln\bigg(\dfrac{4}{3}\bigg)\approx 4.15 \text{ min} \end{aligned}
