@Asish,
Its a common misconception, but you should note that the Newton's law of cooling is not "derived" from Stefan's law. The very fact that its a law (and not a theorem) means that it cannot be derived. Further, Newton's law of cooling is a convection phenomena while Stefan's law deals with radiation phenomena. So how could you derive Newton's law of cooling from Stefan's law.
