Time for a cold volume of air to reach a higher air temperature

[QUOTE="Bhope69199, post: 6858095, member: 611632"] I was looking at my cold cup of coffee and wondered how I would calculate how long it took to cool down. Then thought about turning it upside down and how the volume would be displaced with ambient air pretty much instantly, and whether this would be the case if the coffee cup was filled with cold air. Would the cold air be displaced immediately and what equation I could use to calculate the time it takes. And then thought it would be interesting to know the time taken in the configuration where the cup was just left on the table. (i.e not flipped upside down). I searched online and couldn't find any answers (perhaps the question wasn't worded correctly) so thought I would ask here. [/QUOTE]
