A sphere, a cube and a thin circular pate are heated to the same temperature. If they are made of same material and have equal masses, determine which of these three object cools the fastest and which one cools the slowest?

Explanation

To determine which object cools the fastest and which one cools the slowest among a sphere, a cube, and a thin circular plate, we can use the principles of heat transfer and Stefan's law.

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Understanding the Concept of Cooling**:
The rate of cooling of an object is influenced by its surface area. According to Newton's Law of Cooling and Stefan-Boltzmann Law, the rate of heat loss is proportional to the surface area of the object.

2. **Identifying the Surface Areas**:
