$A$ heated body emits radiation which has maximum intensity at frequency $f_m$. If the temperature of the body is doubled,then:

  • A
    The maximum intensity radiation will be at frequency $2f_m$.
  • B
    The maximum intensity radiation will be at frequency $\frac{1}{2}f_m$.
  • C
    The total emitted energy will increase to $2$ times.
  • D
    The total emitted energy will increase to $16$ times.

Power radiated by a black body at temperature $T_1$ is $P$ and it radiates maximum energy at a wavelength $\lambda_1$. If the temperature of the black body is changed from $T_1$ to $T_2$,it radiates maximum energy at a wavelength $\frac{\lambda_1}{2}$. The power radiated at $T_2$ is (in $P$)

Explain why:
$(a)$ a body with large reflectivity is a poor emitter.
$(b)$ a brass tumbler feels much colder than a wooden tray on a chilly day.
$(c)$ an optical pyrometer (for measuring high temperatures) calibrated for an ideal black body radiation gives too low a value for the temperature of a red hot iron piece in the open,but gives a correct value for the temperature when the same piece is in the furnace.
$(d)$ the earth without its atmosphere would be inhospitably cold.
$(e)$ heating systems based on circulation of steam are more efficient in warming a building than those based on circulation of hot water.

Heat loss takes place from a body maintained at a temperature of $400^{\circ} C$ to the surrounding air at $30^{\circ} C$ by convection and to the surrounding surfaces at $30^{\circ} C$ by radiation. The Newton's cooling coefficient is $20 \ W / m^2 \ K$ and the Stefan-Boltzmann constant is $5.67 \times 10^{-8} \ W / m^2 \ K^4$. If the rate of heat loss by convection is equal to the rate of heat loss by radiation,the emissivity of the body surface is

The dimensions of $\sigma b^4$,where $\sigma$ is Stefan's constant and $b$ is Wien's constant,are:

Determine whether the following statements are True or False:
$(a)$ "Conduction stops once a rod achieves thermal steady state."
$(b)$ $A$ surface that is a good emitter is also a good absorber.
$(c)$ $A$ perfect black body must be black in color.
$(d)$ The value of heat capacity is the same under different conditions for a given matter.
