A sphere of density $\rho $ , specific heat capacity $c$ and radius $r$ is hung by a thermally insulating thread in an enclosure which is kept at a lower temperature than the sphere. The temperature of the sphere starts to drop at a rate which depends upon the temperature difference between the sphere and the enclosure and the nature of the surface of sphere and is proportional to

  • A

    $\frac{c}{{{r^3}\rho }}$

  • B

    $\frac{1}{{{r^3}\rho c}}$

  • C

    $3r^3\rho c$

  • D

    $\frac{1}{{r\rho c}}$
