A physicist must make sure that the temperature of a metal at 0 deg C gets no colder than -80 deg C. The physicist changes the metal's temperature at a steady rate of -4 deg C per hour. For how long can the physicist change the temperature?

20 hours
Explanation:
First let us take the metal as
If the rate of decreasing temperature is -4C/1hr and the physician cannot decrease the temperature beyond -80C.
The time in which he can the physicist change the temperature or the time taken by metal to reach -80C
=
=
= 20 hours
so the time in which he can the physicist change the temperature or the time taken by metal to reach -80C is 20 hours
