Two identical beakers $A$ and $B$ contain equal volumes of two different liquids at $60\,^oC$ each and are left to cool down. The liquid in $A$ has a density of $8 \times 10^2\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $2000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$,while the liquid in $B$ has a density of $10^3\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $4000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$. Which of the following best describes their temperature versus time graph schematically? (Assume the emissivity of both the beakers to be the same.)
