Physics · Thermal Properties
Two spherical 'Gulab Jamuns' (one having twice the radius of the other) and two flat disc-shaped pizzas (one having twice the radius of the other) are all placed simultaneously inside a preheated oven. Which of the following statements correctly describes their rate of heating?
- 1The larger objects will heat up faster because they absorb more radiation overall.
- 2The larger pizza will heat up faster than the smaller pizza due to its larger surface area.
- 3Both sizes of gulab jamuns will reach the oven temperature in exactly the same amount of time.
- 4The smaller gulab jamun heats up faster than the larger one, and the smaller pizza heats up faster than the larger one.✓
Correct answer
The smaller gulab jamun heats up faster than the larger one, and the smaller pizza heats up faster than the larger one.
