The quantities of heat required to raise the temperatures of two copper spheres of radii \(r_{1}\) and \(r_{2}\left(r_{1}=1.5 r_{2}\right)\) through \(1 \mathrm{~K}\) are in the ratio of

  1. A \(\frac{27}{8}\)
  2. B \(\frac{9}{4}\)
  3. C \(\frac{3}{2}\)
  4. D 1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{9}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Required heat, \(Q \propto r^{2}\)
where \(r\) is the radius.
\(\therefore \frac{Q_{1}}{Q_{2}} =\frac{r_{1}^{2}}{r_{2}^{2}} \)
\(\frac{Q_{1}}{Q_{2}} =\frac{(1.5)^{2}}{(1)^{2}} \)
\(\frac{Q_{1}}{Q_{2}} =\frac{9}{4}\)
