Let CA and CB be their heat capacities. Both the spheres have the same surface area. At any given temperature θ they lose heat at the same rate.

-dTdt=σeAT4T04ms

-dTdt=σeAT4T04C

Both are painted black, so e is same. Both have same radius, so surface area is same. Both have same initial temperature and kept in same surrounding.

CAdθdtA=CBdθdtBdθdtAdθdtB=CBCA=constant

Since, CA>CB

dθdtB>dθdtA

B cools faster than A.

Rate of cooling of B is fast but their ratio is constant.
