Two identical objects $A$ and $B$ are at temperatures $T_A$ and $T_B$ respectively. Both objects are placed in a room with perfectly absorbing walls maintained at temperatures T $({T_A} > T > {T_B}).$ The objects A and B attain temperature $T $ eventually which one of the following is correct statement

(b) According to Prevost theory every body radiate heat at all temperature (except 0K) and also absorbs heat from surroundings.
${T_A} > T$ ==> Object $A$ emits radiations more than the radiations it absorbs.
and ${T_B} < T$ ==> Object $B$ absorbs more radiations than it emits.
After a certain time all bodies attains a common temperature.
