The spectrum of a black body at two temperatures 27°C and 327°C is shown in the figure. Let A1 and A2 be the areas under the two curves respectively. Find the value of A2A1.

a
16 : 1
b
8 : 1
c
9 : 4
d
16 : 9

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Area under given curve represents emissive power and emissive power ∝ T4 ⇒ A ∝T4⇒A2A1 = T42T41 = (273+327)4(273+27)4 = (600300)4 = 161
