The sun emits a light with maximum wavelength $510\, mm$ while another star $X$ emits a light with maximum wavelength of $350\, nm$. What is the ratio of surface temperature of sun and the star $X$
A body cools from $60^{\circ} C$ to $40^{\circ} C$ in $6$ minutes. If, temperature of surroundings is $10^{\circ} C$. Then, after the next 6 minutes, its temperature will be $.........{ }^{\circ} C$.
Assume that Solar constant is $1.4 \,kW / m ^2$, radius of sun is $7 \times 10^5 \,km$ and the distance of earth from centre of sun is $1.5 \times 10^{8} \,km$. Stefan's constant is $5.67 \times 10^{-6} \,Wm ^{-2} K ^{-4}$, find the approximate temperature of sun ....... $K$
$Assertion :$ A body that is good radiator is also a good absorber of radiation at a given wavelength.
$Reason :$ According to Kirchhoff’s law the absorptivity of a body is equal to its emissivity at a given wavelength.
The absolute temperatures of two black bodies are $2000 K$ and $3000 K$ respectively. The ratio of wavelengths corresponding to maximum emission of radiation by them will be
body radiates energy $5W$ at a temperature of ${127^o}C$. If the temperature is increased to ${927^o}C$, then it radiates energy at the rate of ...... $W$
The area of the hole of heat furnace is $10^{-4}\,m^2.$ It radiates $1.58\times 10^5\,cal$ of heat per hour. If the emissivity of the furnace is $0.80,$ then its temperature is .......... $K$
