Radiation
Question

A black body is heated from 70C to 2870C. The ratio of radiation emitted is

Moderate
Solution

Given: Initial temperature, T1 = 70C = 280 K

Final temperature, T2= 2870C = 560 K

According to Stefan's law the radiated energy is given y

 T4

Hence E1E2 = T14T24 = (280560)4= 116

    E1 : E2 = 1 : 16
