If the temperature of the sun (black body) is doubled,the rate of energy received on earth will be increased by a factor of

The total energy of a black body radiation source is collected for five minutes and used to heat water. The temperature of the water increases from $10.0^{\circ} C$ to $11.0^{\circ} C$. The absolute temperature of the black body is doubled and its surface area halved and the experiment repeated for the same time. Which of the following statements would be most nearly correct?

Two identical plates $P$ and $Q$,radiating as perfect black bodies,are kept in vacuum at constant absolute temperatures $T_P$ and $T_Q$,respectively,with $T_Q < T_P$,as shown in Fig. $1$. The radiated power transferred per unit area from $P$ to $Q$ is $W_0$. Subsequently,two more plates,identical to $P$ and $Q$,are introduced between $P$ and $Q$,as shown in Fig. $2$. Assume that heat transfer takes place only between adjacent plates. If the power transferred per unit area in the direction from $P$ to $Q$ (Fig. $2$) in the steady state is $W_S$,then the ratio $\frac{W_0}{W_S}$ is $.....$

$A$ black rectangular surface of area $A$ emits energy $E$ per second at $27^{\circ} C$. If length and breadth are reduced to $1/3$ of their initial values and the temperature is raised to $327^{\circ} C$,then the energy emitted per second becomes:

$A$ black body at temperature $127^{\circ} C$ radiates heat at the rate of $5 \ cal / cm^2 \ s$. At a temperature $927^{\circ} C$,its rate of emission in units of $cal / cm^2 \ s$ will be
