Detailed Solution

$\begin{array}{l} (\frac{4}{3} π r^{3}) \times ρ C \frac{d T}{d t} = σ (4 π r^{2}) T^{4} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{r}{3} \times ρ C \frac{d T}{d t} = σ T^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{r ρ C}{3 σ T^{4}} d T = d t \\ \begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow \frac{r ρ C}{3 σ} \int_{100}^{200} \frac{d T}{T^{4}} = \int_{0}^{t} d t \\ \Rightarrow \frac{r ρ C}{3 σ} \int_{100}^{200} \frac{d T}{T^{4}} = \int_{0}^{t} d t \\ \Rightarrow \frac{r ρ C}{9 σ \times 10^{6}} (1 - \frac{1}{8}) = t \\ ∴ t = \frac{7 r ρ C}{72 σ \times 10^{6}} \end{array} \end{array}$
