    There are two spherical balls A and B of the same material with same surface, but the diameter of A is half that of B. If A and B are heated to the same temperature and then allowed to cool, then

    A)  rate of cooling is same in both

    B)  rate of cooling of A is four times that of B

    C)  rate of cooling of A is twice that of B

    D)  rate of cooling of A is \[\frac{1}{4}\] times that of B

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Rate of cooling \[{{R}_{c}}=\frac{A\varepsilon \sigma ({{T}^{4}}-T_{0}^{4})}{mc}\] \[=\frac{A\varepsilon \sigma ({{T}^{4}}-T_{0}^{4})}{V\rho c}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{R}_{c}}=\frac{A}{V}\propto \frac{1}{r}\propto \frac{1}{(Diameter)}\](\[\because \]\[m=\rho V\]) Since, diameter of A is half that of B, so its rate of cooling will be doubled that of B.
