Two spheres of radii $R_1$ and $R_2$ have densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ and specific heats $S_1$ and $S_2$. If they are heated to the same temperature,what is the ratio of their rates of cooling?

  • A
    $\frac{R_2}{R_1}$
  • B
    $\frac{R_1 \rho_2 S_2}{R_2 \rho_1 S_1}$
  • C
    $\frac{R_2 \rho_2 S_2}{R_1 \rho_1 S_1}$
  • D
    $\left( \frac{R_1}{R_2} \right)^2$

Two identical beakers $A$ and $B$ contain equal volumes of two different liquids at $60\,^oC$ each and are left to cool down. The liquid in $A$ has a density of $8 \times 10^2\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $2000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$,while the liquid in $B$ has a density of $10^3\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $4000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$. Which of the following best describes their temperature versus time graph schematically? (Assume the emissivity of both the beakers to be the same.)
