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
  • A$4 \times 10^{-20}$
  • B$2 \times 10^{-6}$
  • C$10^{-3}$
  • D$10^{-16}$

    On observing light from three different stars $P, Q$ and $R$, it was found that intensity of violet colour is maximum in the spectrum of $P$, the intensity of green colour is maximum in the spectrum of $R$ and the intensity of red colour is maximum in the spectrum of $Q$. If $T_P, T_Q$ and $T_R$ are the respective absolute temperatures of $P, Q$ and $R$, then it can be concluded from the above observations that
