Two circular discs $A$ and $B$ with equal radii are blackened. They are heated to the same temperature and are cooled under identical conditions. What inference do you draw from their cooling curves shown in the figure?

  • A
    $A$ and $B$ have the same specific heats
  • B
    Specific heat of $A$ is less
  • C
    Specific heat of $B$ is less
  • D
    Nothing can be said

$A$ solid sphere of radius $R$ and a hollow sphere of inner radius $r$ and outer radius $R$ made of copper are heated to the same temperature and are allowed to cool in the same environment. Then,choose the $CORRECT$ statement.

$A$ pan filled with hot food cools from $94\,^{\circ}C$ to $86\,^{\circ}C$ in $2$ minutes when the room temperature is at $20\,^{\circ}C$. How long (in $s$) will it take to cool from $71\,^{\circ}C$ to $69\,^{\circ}C$?

Two bottles $A$ and $B$ have radii $R_{A}$ and $R_{B}$ and heights $h_{A}$ and $h_{B}$ respectively,with $R_{B}=2 R_{A}$ and $h_{B}=2 h_{A}$. These are filled with hot water at $60^{\circ} C$. Consider that heat loss for the bottles takes place only from side surfaces. If the time the water takes to cool down to $50^{\circ} C$ is $t_{A}$ and $t_{B}$ for bottles $A$ and $B$,respectively,then $t_{A}$ and $t_{B}$ are best related as:
