A solide sphere and a hollow sphere of the same material and of equal radii are heated to the same temperature (i) Both will emit equal amount of radiation per unit time in the beginning (ii) Both will absorb equal amount of radiation from the surrounding in the beginning (iii) The initial rate of cooling dT//dt will be same for the two spheres (iv) The two spheres will have equal temperatures at any instant

A solid sphere and a hollow sphere of the same material and size are heated to the same temperature and allowed to cool in the same surroundings. If the temperature difference between the surroundings and each sphere is T, then :

Assertion : A solid sphere and a hollow sphere of same material and same radius are kept at same temperature in atmosphere. Rate of cooling of hollow sphere will be more. Reason : If all other conditions are same, then rate of cooling is inversely proportional to the mass of body.

Assertion : A solid sphere of copper of radius R and a hollow sphere of the same material of inner radius r and outer radius R are heated to the same temperature and allowed to cool in the same environment. The hollow sphere cools faster. Reason : Rate of cooling is according to Stefan's law which is E alpha T^(4)

A solid sphere of copper of radius R and a hollow sphere of the same materail of inner radius r and outer radius A are heated to the same temperature and allowed to cool in the same environment. Which of tehm starts cooling faster?

Assertion : A solid and hollow sphere of same diameter and same material when heated through the same temperature will expand by the same amount. Reason : The change in volume us independent of the original mass but depends on original volume.
