(N/A) The value of the Stefan-Boltzmann constant is $5.67 \times 10^{-8} \text{ W m}^{-2} \text{ K}^{-4}$.
The dimensional formula is derived from the Stefan-Boltzmann law $E = \sigma T^4$,where $E$ is the power per unit area $([M^1 T^{-3}])$ and $T$ is temperature $([K^1])$.
Thus,the dimensions of $\sigma$ are $[M^1 L^0 T^{-3} K^{-4}]$.

The radiation emitted by a star $A$ is $10000$ times that of the sun. If the surface temperatures of the sun and the star $A$ are $6000 \ K$ and $2000 \ K$ respectively,the ratio of the radii of the star $A$ and the sun is: (in $: 1$)

For a black body at temperature $727^{\circ} C$,its radiating power is $60\; W$ and the temperature of the surrounding is $227^{\circ} C$. If the temperature of the black body is changed to $1227^{\circ} C$,then its radiating power will be ..... $W$.

$A$ 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 $\sigma = 5.73 \times 10^{-8} \ W \ m^{-2} \ K^{-4}$)

Suppose the sun expands so that its radius becomes $100$ times its present radius and its surface temperature becomes half of its present value. The total energy emitted by it then will increase by a factor of
