The operating temperature and emissivity of a tungsten filament are $2000 \ K$ and $0.3$,respectively. The surface area of the filament is $A \ cm^2$. If the power of the lamp is $25 \ W$,find $A$. (Given: $\sigma = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \ W/m^2K^4$)

The temperature of a black body reduces to half of its initial value. By what fraction will the amount of radiation emitted reduce?

Two spherical bodies of same materials having radii $0.2 \ m$ and $0.8 \ m$ are placed in the same atmosphere. The temperature of the smaller body is $800 \ K$ and the temperature of the bigger body is $400 \ K$. If the energy radiated from the smaller body is $E$,the energy radiated from the bigger body is (assume the effect of the surrounding to be negligible).
