$\frac{\mathrm{d} \theta}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\sigma \mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{ms}}\left(\theta^{4}-\theta_{0}^{4}\right)$

$\frac{d \theta}{d t} \propto \frac{1}{s}$

Line $A$ has more slope so specific heat of $A$ is less than $B.$

    Steel wire of length ' $L$ ' at $40^{\circ} C$ is suspended from the ceiling and then a mass ' $m$ ' is hung from its free end. The wire is cooled down from $40^{\circ} C$ to $30^{\circ} C$ to regain its original length ' $L$ '. The coefficient of linear thermal expansion of the steel is $10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} C$, Young's modulus of steel is $10^{11} N / m ^2$ and radius of the wire is $1 \ mm$.
