A spherical steel ball of $$12mm$$ diameter is initially at $$100K.$$ It is slowly cooled in a surrounding of $$300K.$$ The heat transfer coefficient between the steel ball and the surrounding is $$5W/{m^2}K.$$ The thermal conductivity of steel is $$20$$ $$W/mK.$$ The temperature difference between the centre and the surface of steel ball is
A
large because conduction resistance is far high than the convective resistance.
B
large because conduction resistance is far less than the convective resistance.
C
small because conduction resistance is far high than the convective resistance.
D
small because conduction resistance is far less than the convective resistance.
