  • A

    The hollow sphere will cool at a faster rate for all values of $T$

  • B

    The solid sphere will cool at a faster rate for all values of $T$

  • C

    Both spheres will cool at the same rate for all values of $T$

  • D

    Both spheres will cool at the same rate only for small values of $T$
