Radiation

Question

A surface at temperature T0 Kelvin receives power P by radiation from a small sphere at temperature  T >>T0 and at a distance d. If both T and d are doubled, the power received by the surface will become approximately

Moderate
Solution

P  α   T4d2
When T and d are doubled, power received by the surface  P'  α   2T42d2α  4T4d2
     P'=4P
