    If the ratio of radii of two spheres of same material is 1 : 4 then the ratio of their heat capacities is:

    A) \[\frac{1}{64}\]                                

    B) \[\frac{1}{32}\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{16}\]                               

    D)  \[\frac{1}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given: Radius of the first sphere \[{{R}_{1}}=R\] Radius of the second sphere \[{{R}_{2}}=4R\] The heat capacity is given by as                                 \[\Delta Q=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\rho c\propto {{R}^{3}}\]                 Hence,\[\left( \frac{\Delta {{Q}_{1}}}{\Delta {{Q}_{2}}} \right)=\left( \frac{{{R}_{1}}}{{{R}_{2}}} \right)={{\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)}^{3}}=\frac{1}{64}\]
