c 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.

In the Ingen Hauz’s experiment the wax melts up to lengths $10$ and $25 cm$ on two identical rods of different materials. The ratio of thermal conductivities of the two materials is
The maximum wavelength of radiation emitted at $2000\;K$is $4\mu m$. What will be the maximum wavelength of radiation emitted at $2400\,K$ is ...... $\mu m$
An object kept in a large room having air temperature of $25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ takes $12$ minutes to cool from $80^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $70^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. The time taken to cool for the same object from $70^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ would be nearly.....$min$
Radiation from a black body at the thermodynamic temperature $T_1$ is measured by a small detector at distance $d_1$ from it. When the temperature is increased to $T_2$ and the distance to $d_2$ , the power received by the detector is unchanged . What is the ratio $d_2/d_1$ ?
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. . . . .
Three rods $AB, BC$ and $AC$ having thermal resistances of $10\, units, \,10 \,units$ and $20 \,units,$ respectively, are connected as shown in the figure. Ends $A$ and $C$ are maintained at constant temperatures of $100^o C$ and $0^o C,$ respectively. The rate at which the heat is crossing junction $B$ is ........ $ \mathrm{units}$
Two spherical stars $A$ and $B$ emit blackbody radiation. The radius of $A$ is $400$ times that of $B$ and $A$ emits $10^4$ times the power emitted from $B$. The ratio $\left(\lambda_A / \lambda_B\right)$ of their wavelengths $\lambda_A$ and $\lambda_B$ at which the peaks occur in their respective radiation curves is
If two metallic plates of equal thicknesses and thermal conductivities ${K_1}$ and ${K_2}$ are put together face to face and a common plate is constructed, then the equivalent thermal conductivity of this plate will be
