The total energy radiated from a black body source is collected for one minute and is used to heat a quantity of water. The temperature of water is found to increase  from   20$°\mathrm{C}$ to 20.5$°\mathrm{C}$ . If the absolute temperature of the black body is doubled and the experiment is repeated with the same quantity of water at 20$°\mathrm{C}$, the temperature of water will be 

1. 21$°\mathrm{C}$               2. 22$°\mathrm{C}$ 
3. 24$°\mathrm{C}$               4. 28$°\mathrm{C}$ 

A solid sphere and a hollow sphere of the same material and size are heated to the same temperature and allowed to cool in the same surroundings. If the temperature difference between each sphere and its surroundings is same , then

1. The hollow sphere will cool at a faster rate for all values of T

2. The solid sphere will cool at a faster rate for all values of T

3. Both spheres will cool at the same rate for all values of T

4. Both spheres will cool at the same rate only for small values of T

A solid copper cube of edges 1 cm is suspended in an evacuated enclosure. Its temperature is found to fall from 100$°\mathrm{C}$ to 99$°\mathrm{C}$ in 100 s . Another solid copper cube of edges 2 cm, with similar surface nature, is suspended in a similar manner.
