(a)  $P = \left( {\frac{Q}{t}} \right) \propto {T^4}$

==> $\frac{W}{{{P_2}}} = {\left( {\frac{T}{{T/3}}} \right)^4}$

==> ${P_2} = \frac{W}{{81}}$.

    The top of insulated cylindrical container is covered by a disc having emissivity $0.6$ and thickness $1\, cm$. The temperature is maintained by circulating oil as shown in figure. If temperature of upper surface of disc is $127^o C$ and temperature of surrounding is $27^o C$, then the radiation loss to the surroundings will be (Take $\sigma = \frac{{17}}{3} \times {10^{ - 8}}W/{m^2}{K^4})$
