Two electric lamps $A$ and $B$ radiate the same power. Their filaments have the same dimensions and have emissivities $e_A$ and $e_B$. Their surface temperatures are $T_A$ and $T_B$. The ratio $\frac{T_A}{T_B}$ will be equal to :-

  • A
    $(\frac{e_B}{e_A})^{1/4}$
  • B
    $(\frac{e_B}{e_A})^{1/2}$
  • C
    $(\frac{e_A}{e_B})^{1/2}$
  • D
    $(\frac{e_A}{e_B})^{1/4}$

$A$ black body of mass $34.38 \ g$ and surface area $19.2 \ cm^2$ is at an initial temperature of $400 \ K$. It is allowed to cool inside an evacuated enclosure kept at a constant temperature of $300 \ K$. The rate of cooling is $0.04 \ ^{\circ}C/s$. The specific heat of the body in $J \ kg^{-1} \ K^{-1}$ is (Stefan's constant $\sigma = 5.73 \times 10^{-8} \ W \ m^{-2} \ K^{-4}$)

$A$ black body emits energy at the rate of $1.0 \times 10^{6} \ J/s \cdot m^{2}$ at $127^{\circ}C$. At what temperature will the energy emission rate be $16.0 \times 10^{6} \ J/s \cdot m^{2}$ in $^{\circ}C$?

$Assertion :$ Bodies radiate heat at all temperatures.
$Reason :$ Rate of radiation of heat is proportional to the fourth power of absolute temperature.
