Cooling faster and reaching sub zero temperatures faster are two different things. The hotter water will drop more degrees per minute/hour based on Newton, but at some point the two liquids will be the same temperature, and then you’re assigning some sort of thermal momentum that Newton doesn’t cover.
- ddingus 4y agoWould the warmer water not have currents present from convection? Those are a source of inertia. There is a case for the warmer liquid never actually reaching the same state the cooler liquid is in.
