$Assertion :$ For higher temperature the peak emission wavelength of a blackbody shifts to lower wavelengths.
$Reason :$ Peak emission wavelengths of a black body is proportional to the fourth-power of temperature.

According to Wein’s displacement law, $\lambda _mT = constant$ Naturally, when $T$ increases $\lambda _m$ decreases. $\lambda _m$ is peak emission wavelength and $E = \sigma T^4$ Here, $E$ is energy being radiated per unit area per unit time.

Temperature of a black body increases from ${327^o}C\,{\rm{to}}\,{\rm{92}}{{\rm{7}}^{\rm{o}}}C$, the initial energy possessed is $ 2KJ$ , what is its final energy ..... $KJ$
Objects $A$ and $B$ that are initially separated from each other and well isolated from their surroundings are then brought into thermal contact. Initially $T_A= 0^oC$ and $T_B = 100^oC$. The specific heat of $A$ is less than the specific heat of $B$. After some time, the system comes to an equilibrium state. The final temperatures are :
A composite metal bar of uniform section is made up of length $25 cm$ of copper, $10 cm$ of nickel and $15 cm$ of aluminium. Each part being in perfect thermal contact with the adjoining part. The copper end of the composite rod is maintained at ${100^o}C$ and the aluminium end at ${0^o}C$. The whole rod is covered with belt so that there is no heat loss occurs at the sides. If ${K_{{\rm{Cu}}}} = 2{K_{Al}}$ and ${K_{Al}} = 3{K_{{\rm{Ni}}}}$, then what will be the temperatures of $Cu - Ni$ and $Ni - Al$ junctions respectively
A slab of stone of area $0.36\;m ^2$ and thickness $0.1 \;m$ is exposed on the lower surface to steam at $100^{\circ} C$. A block of ice at $0^{\circ} C$ rests on the upper surface of the slab. In one hour $4.8\; kg$ of ice is melted. The thermal conductivity of slab is .......... $J / m / s /{ }^{\circ} C$ (Given latent heat of fusion of ice $=3.36 \times 10^5\; J kg ^{-1}$)
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?
Two vessels of different materials are similar in size in every respect. The same quantity of ice filled in them gets melted in $20$ minutes and $40$ minutes respectively. The ratio of thermal conductivities of the materials is
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 $\left.=4200 J kg ^{-1} K ^{-1}\right)$
