Two concentric spheres of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ are maintained at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively. The rate of radial heat flow between the two concentric spheres is proportional to:

  • A
    $\frac{(r_2 - r_1)}{(r_1 r_2)}$
  • B
    $\ln\left(\frac{r_2}{r_1}\right)$
  • C
    $\frac{r_1 r_2}{(r_2 - r_1)}$
  • D
    $(r_2 - r_1)$
