Two identical beakers A and B contain equal volumes of two different liquids at 60°C each and left to cool down. Liquid in A has density of 8 × 102 kg/m3 and specific heat of 2000 Jkg−1K−1 while liquid in B has density of 103 kgm−3 and specific heat of 4000 Jkg−1K−1. Which of the following best describes their temperature versus time graph schematically? (assume the emissivity of both the beakers to be the same)

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Answer Key / Explanation : (b) -

mS =e 4

   =

 = (2) >1

So, A cools down at faster rate.
