If the sun's surface radiates heat at $6.3 \times 10^7 \ W m^{-2}$,calculate the temperature of the sun assuming it to be a black body $(\sigma = 5.7 \times 10^{-8} \ W m^{-2} K^{-4})$.

  • A
    $5.8 \times 10^3 \ K$
  • B
    $8.5 \times 10^3 \ K$
  • C
    $3.5 \times 10^8 \ K$
  • D
    $5.3 \times 10^8 \ K$

The ratio of energies of radiation emitted by a black body at $600 \ K$ and $900 \ K$ when the surrounding temperature is $300 \ K$ is: (in $/16$)

The temperature of a body is increased from $T_1 = 127^{\circ}C$ to $T_2 = 227^{\circ}C$. The ambient temperature is $T_0 = 27^{\circ}C$. The energies emitted per second by the body at $T_1$ and $T_2$ are $E_1$ and $E_2$ respectively. The ratio of $\frac{E_2}{E_1}$ is:

At $127^{\circ}C$,the radiated energy is $2.7 \times 10^{-3} \text{ J/s}$. At what temperature in $K$ is the radiated energy $4.32 \times 10^{6} \text{ J/s}$?

If the temperature of a hot body is increased by $50 \%$,then the increase in the quantity of emitted heat radiation will be approximately (in $\%$)

The rate of emission of radiation of a black body at $273^{\circ} C$ is $E$. What will be the rate of emission of radiation of this body at $0^{\circ} C$?
