A small object is placed at the center of a large evacuated hollow spherical container. Assume that the container is maintained at $0 K$. At time $t =0$, the temperature of the object is $200 K$. The temperature of the object becomes $100 K$ at $t = t _1$ and $50 K$ at $t = t _2$. Assume the object and the container to be ideal black bodies. The heat capacity of the object does not depend on temperature. The ratio $\left( t _2 / t _1\right)$ is. . . . .

$\sigma A T^4=-m s \frac{d T}{d t}$

$\int_{200}^{100} \frac{d T}{T^4}=\int_0^{t_1} k dt$

$\left.\frac{1}{3 T ^3}\right|_{200} ^{100}= kt _1$

$\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{100^3}-\frac{1}{200^3}\right)= kt _1$

$\left.\frac{1}{3 T ^3}\right|_{200} ^{50}= kt _2$

$\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{50^3}-\frac{1}{200^3}\right)= kt t _2$

$\frac{ t _2}{ t _1}=\left(\frac{200^3-50^3}{200^3-100^3}\right) \frac{100^3}{50^3}=9$
