Two spherical black bodies of radius $r_{1}$ and $r_{2}$ with surface temperatures $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ respectively,radiate the same power. Then the ratio $r_{1}: r_{2}$ is:

  • A
    $\left(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}\right)^{2}$
  • B
    $\left(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}\right)^{4}$
  • C
    $\left(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}}\right)^{2}$
  • D
    $\left(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}\right)^{4}$
