Two bodies $X$ and $Y$ at temperatures $T_1 \ K$ and $T_2 \ K$ respectively have the same dimensions. If their emissive powers are the same,the relation between their temperatures is:

  • A
    $T_1 / T_2 = 1 / 3$
  • B
    $T_1 / T_2 = 81 / 1$
  • C
    $T_1 / T_2 = 3^{1/4} / 1$
  • D
    $T_1 / T_2 = 9^{1/4} / 1$
