$A$ thin piece of thermal conductor of constant thermal conductivity,insulated on the lateral sides,connects two reservoirs which are maintained at temperatures $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ as shown in the figure. Assuming that the system is in a steady state,which of the following plots best represents the dependence of the rate of change of entropy on the ratio $T_{1} / T_{2}$?

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ have thermal emissivities of $0.01$ and $0.81$ respectively. The outer surface areas of the two bodies are the same. The two bodies emit total radiant power at the same rate. The wavelength ${\lambda _B}$ corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $B$ is shifted from the wavelength corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $A$ by $1.00\;\mu m$. If the temperature of $A$ is $5802\;K$,then:

The sun,acting as a black body,emits maximum radiation at a wavelength of $0.48 \ \mu m$. The average radius of the sun is $6.96 \times 10^{8} \ m$. The Stefan-Boltzmann constant is $5.67 \times 10^{-8} \ W/m^2K^4$ and Wien's constant is $0.293 \ cm \cdot K$. The decrease in the mass of the sun per second due to radiation is ..... $kg/s$.
