If between wavelength $\lambda $and $\lambda + d\lambda $, ${e_\lambda }$and ${a_\lambda }$ be the emissive and absorptive powers of a body and ${E_\lambda }$ be the emissive power of a perfectly black body, then according to Kirchoff's law, which is true

(c)According to Kirchoff’s law, the ratio of emissive power to absorptive power is same for all bodies is equal to the emissive power of a perfectly black body i.e.,

${\left( {\frac{e}{a}} \right)_{body}} = {E_{{\rm{Black}}\,{\rm{body}}}}$ for a particular wave length

${\left( {\frac{{{e_\lambda }}}{{{a_\lambda }}}} \right)_{{\rm{body}}}} = {({E_\lambda })_{{\rm{Black}}\,{\rm{body}}}}$ ==> ${e_\lambda } = {a_\lambda }{E_\lambda }$
