A certain stellar body has radius $50 \,R_{s}$ and temperature $2 \,T_{s}$ and is at a distance of $2 \times 10^{10} \,AU$ from the earth. Here, $AU$ refers to the earth-sun distance and $R_{s}$ and $T_{s}$ refer to the sun's radius and temperature, respectively. Take, both star and sun to be ideal black bodies. The ratio of the power received on earth from the stellar body as compared to that received from the sun is close to

$(d)$ Intensity of radiation of sun on earth or solar constant,

$S_{1} =-\frac{P}{4 \pi R_{0}^{2}}=\frac{4 \pi R_{s}^{2} \cdot \sigma \cdot T_{s}^{4}}{4 \pi R_{0}^{2}}$

$=\sigma \frac{R_{s}^{2}}{R_{s}^{2}} \cdot T_{s}^{4}$ ....................$(i)$

where, $R_{s}=$ radius of sun,

$R_{o} =\text { radius of orbit, }$

$\sigma =\text { Stefan.Boltzmann constant and }$

$T_{s} =\text { temperature of sun. }$

Now, intensity of radiation received from steller body on carth's surface,

$S_{2} =\frac{\sigma\left(50 R_{z}\right)^{2}}{\left(2 \times 10^{10} R_{0}\right)^{2}} \cdot\left(2 T_{s}\right)^{4}$

$\Rightarrow \quad S_{2} =\frac{2500 \times 16}{4 \times 10^{2}} \times \sigma \cdot \frac{R_{s}^{2}}{R_{0}^{2}} \cdot T_{s}^{4}$

$\Rightarrow \quad S_{2}=10^{-16} S_{1} \quad$ (from Eq. $(i)$)

$\Rightarrow \quad \frac{S_{2}}{S_{1}}=10^{-16}$

    A container with $1 kg$ of water in it is kept in sunlight, which causes the water to get warmer than the surroundings. The average energy per unit time per unit area received due to the sunlight is $700 Wm ^{-2}$ and it is absorbed by the water over an effective area of $0.05 m ^2$. Assuming that the heat loss from the water to the surroundings is governed by Newton's law of cooling, the difference (in ${ }^{\circ} C$ ) in the temperature of water and the surroundings after a long time will be. . . . . . . . (Ignore effect of the container, and take constant for Newton's law of cooling $=0.001 s ^{-1}$, Heat capacity of water $\left.=4200 J kg ^{-1} K ^{-1}\right)$
