Two metallic sphere A and B are made of same material and have got identical surface finish. The mass of sphere A is four times that of B. Both the spheres are heated to the same temperature and placed in a room having lower temperature but thermally insulated from each other.

Options

A. The ratio of heat loss of A to that of B is `2^(4//3)`
B. The ratio of heat loss of A to that of B is `2^(2//3)`
C. The ratio of the initial rate of cooling of A to that of B is `2^(–1//3)`
D. The ratio of the initial rate of cooling of A to that of B is `2^(–4//3)`.

Answer

A
