MCQ
Star $A$ has radius $ r$ surface temperature $T$ while star $B$ has radius $4r$ and surface temperature $T/2$ . The ratio of the power of two starts, $P_A : P_B$ is
  • A
    $16:1$
  • B
    $1:16$
  • $1:1$
  • D
    $1:4$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1:1$
c
(c) Power $P \propto A{T^4} \propto {r^2}{T^4}$

==> $\frac{{{P_2}}}{{{P_1}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{r_2}}}{{{r_1}}}} \right)^2} \times {\left( {\frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1}}}} \right)^4}$$ = {\left( {\frac{{4r}}{r}} \right)^2} \times {\left( {\frac{{T/2}}{T}} \right)^4}$ $=1$ .
