Thermal Radiation: Black Body, Stefan & Wien

A black rectangular surface of area 'AA' emits energy 'EE' per second at 27∘C27^\circ\text{C}. If length and breadth is reduced to (1/3)(1/3)rd of its initial value and temperature is raised to 327∘C327^\circ\text{C} then energy emitted per second becomes

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. E∝AT4E \propto A T^4.
  2. Length and breadth become 13\frac{1}{3}: A→A9A \to \frac{A}{9}.
  3. T:300 K→600 KT: 300\text{ K} \to 600\text{ K}, factor 1616.
  4. E′=16E9E' = \frac{16E}{9}, so the answer is (c).
