1383. A metal ball of radius 0.1 m at a uniform temperature of 90°C is left in air at 30°C. The density and the specific heat of the metal are 3000 kg/m³ and 0.4 kJ/kg.K respectively. The heat transfer co-efficient is 50 W/m².K Neglecting the temperature gradients inside the ball, the time taken (in hours) for the ball to cool to 60°C is

555
55.5
0.55
0.15
✅ The correct answer is option D.

1385. A hollow sphere and a solid sphere of the same material and equal radii are heated to the same temperature. In this case,

The cooling rate will be the same for the two spheres and hence the two spheres will have equal temperatures at any instant
Both the spheres will emit equal amount of radiation per unit time in the beginning
Both will absorb equal amount of radiation from the surrounding in the beginning
Both B & C
✅ The correct answer is option D.
