Three discs $x, y$ and $z$ having radii $2 \ m, 2 \ m$ and $6 \ m$ respectively are coated on their outer surfaces. If the wavelengths corresponding to the maximum power radiated by them are $3 \ \mu m, 4 \ \mu m$ and $5 \ \mu m$ respectively,then which of the following is true regarding the power radiated $(P)$?

  • A
    $P_y$ is maximum
  • B
    $P_z$ is maximum
  • C
    $P_x = P_y = P_z$
  • D
    $P_x$ is maximum

The power radiated by a black body is $P$ and it radiates maximum energy around the wavelength $\lambda_0$. If the temperature of the black body is now changed so that it radiates maximum energy around wavelength $\frac{3}{4}\lambda_0$,the power radiated by it will increase by a factor of

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:

Statement $A$: Convection involves flow of matter within a fluid due to unequal temperatures of its parts.
Statement $B$: $A$ hot bar placed under a running tap water loses heat due to the effect of convection within water.
Statement $C$: Heat transfer always involves a temperature difference between two systems.

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 $P$)
