Body A of mass 2 kg and another body B of mass 4 kg and of same material are kept in the same sunshine for some interval of time. If the rise in temperature is equal for both the bodies, then which one among the following in this regard is correct?

{'temperature': [0, 1, 1, 7], 'heat': [10, 3, 13, 46], 'same sunshine': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'mass': [0, 0, 2, 3], 'bodies': [0, 0, 3, 10], 'same material': [0, 0, 2, 4], 'quantity': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

Option 1 states that the heat absorbed by body B is double because its mass is double. This statement is incorrect. The rise in temperature of a body is determined by the heat absorbed, not the mass of the body. Therefore, the mass of the body does not directly affect the amount of heat absorbed.

Option 2 states that the heat absorbed by body A is double because its mass is half. This statement is also incorrect. As mentioned before, the mass of the body does not have a direct impact on the amount of heat absorbed.

Option 3 states that the heat absorbed by both bodies A and B is equal because the quantity of heat absorbed does not depend on mass. This statement is incorrect. While the quantity of heat absorbed does not depend on mass, the heat absorbed by the bodies can still be different.

Option 4 states that the heat absorbed by body B is four times the heat absorbed by body A because the quantity of heat absorbed is proportional to the square of the mass. This statement is also incorrect. The heat absorbed by a body does not directly depend on the square of its mass.

Therefore, none of the given options are correct. Alert - The correct answer should be: "The heat absorbed by both bodies A and B would be equal because the
