Description : A circular plate, a cube and a sphere, all made up of same material and having the same mass, are heated to 300°C and left in a room. Which of them will have the slowest rate of cooling? (1) Circular plate (2) Cube (3) Sphere (4) All will cool at the same rate

Last Answer : (3) Sphere Explanation: In the late of 17th century British scientist Isaac Newton studied cooling of bodies. Experiments showed that the cooling rate is approximately proportional to the difference of temperatures between the heated body and the environment.
