Two thin metallic spherical shells of radii ${r}_{1}$ and ${r}_{2}$ $\left({r}_{1}<{r}_{2}\right)$ are placed with their centres coinciding. A material of thermal conductivity ${K}$ is filled in the space between the shells. The inner shell is maintained at temperature $\theta_{1}$ and the outer shell at temperature $\theta_{2}\left(\theta_{1}<\theta_{2}\right)$. The rate at which heat flows radially through the material is :-
