The figure shows a system of two concentric spheres of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ and kept at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$, respectively. The radial rate of flow of heat in a substance between the two concentric spheres is proportional to
A black body is at a temperature of $5760\ K$. The energy of radiation emitted by the body at wavelength $250\ nm$ is $U_1$, at wavelength $500\ nm$ is $U_2$ and that at $1000\ nm$ is $U_3$. Wien's constant, $b = 2.88 \times 10^6\ nm\ K$. Which of the following is correct?
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 $\left.=4200 J kg ^{-1} K ^{-1}\right)$
A solid cylinder of length $L$ and radius $r$ is heat upto same temperature as that of a cube of edge length $a$. If both have same material, volume and allowed to cool under similar conditions, then ratio of amount of radiations radiated will be (Neglect radiation emitted from flat surfaces of the cylinder)
Two spheres $P$ and $Q$, of same colour having radii $8\;cm$ and $2\;cm$ are maintained at temperatures ${127^o}C$ and ${527^o}C$ respectively. The ratio of energy radiated by $P$ and $Q$ is
A small object is placed at the center of a large evacuated hollow spherical container. Assume that the container is maintained at $0 K$. At time $t =0$, the temperature of the object is $200 K$. The temperature of the object becomes $100 K$ at $t = t _1$ and $50 K$ at $t = t _2$. Assume the object and the container to be ideal black bodies. The heat capacity of the object does not depend on temperature. The ratio $\left( t _2 / t _1\right)$ is. . . . .
The temperature of the two outer surfaces of a composite slab, consisting of two materials having coefficients of thermal conductivity $K$ and $2K$ and thickness $x$ and $4x$ , respectively are $T_2$ and $T_1$ ($T_2$ > $T_1$). The rate of heat transfer through the slab, in a steady state is $\left( {\frac{{A({T_2} - {T_1})K}}{x}} \right)f$, with $f $ which equal to
