A solid sphere and a hollow sphere of the same material and of equal radii are heated to the same temperature. Then select the wrong statement.

a
Both will emit equal amount of radiation per unit time in the beginning.
b
Both will absorb equal amount of radiation from the surroundings in the beginning.
c
The initial rate of cooling will be the same for two spheres.
d
The two spheres will have different temperatures at any time t > 0.

detailed solution

Correct option is C

m.s.-dTdt=e.σ.A.T4-T04 ⇒-dTdt∝T4-T04mInitially T = T1 for both spheres and for solid sphere ‘m’ is more . Hence option -(3) is right.
