Two liquids of equal volume are cooled under identical conditions from $60^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$ in $324 \; sec$ and $810 \; sec$ respectively. If the ratio of their specific heats is $3:4$,find the ratio of their densities. (The water equivalent of the calorimeter is negligible.)

Two spheres have a radius ratio of $1:2$ and a density ratio of $2:1$. They have the same specific heat. If they are heated to the same temperature and placed in the same environment,what is the ratio of their rate of cooling?

Two metallic spheres $S_1$ and $S_2$ are made of the same material and have identical surface finish. The mass of $S_1$ is three times that of $S_2$. Both the spheres are heated to the same high temperature and placed in the same room having lower temperature but are thermally insulated from each other. The ratio of the initial rate of cooling of $S_1$ to that of $S_2$ is

Two identical beakers $A$ and $B$ contain equal volumes of two different liquids at $60\,^oC$ each and are left to cool down. The liquid in $A$ has a density of $8 \times 10^2\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $2000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$,while the liquid in $B$ has a density of $10^3\, kg/m^3$ and a specific heat of $4000\, Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$. Which of the following best describes their temperature versus time graph schematically? (Assume the emissivity of both the beakers to be the same.)
