A black body at a temperature of $1640\,\,K$ has the wavelength corresponding to maximum emission equal to $1.75 \,\,\mu m.$ Assuming the moon to be a perfectly black body, the temperature of the moon, if the wavelength corresponding to maximum emission is $14.35\,\,\mu m$ is.......$K$
A black body at a temperature of $127°C$ radiates heat at the rate of $1 cal/cm^2 × sec$. At a temperature of $527°C$ the rate of heat radiation from the body in ($cal/cm^2 × sec$) will be
A beaker full of hot water is kept in a room. If it cools from $80^{\circ} C$ to $75^{\circ} C$ in $t_1$, minutes, from $75^{\circ} C$ to $70^{\circ} C$ in $t_2$ minutes and from $70^{\circ} C$ to $65^{\circ} C$ in $t_3$ minutes, then
A certain stellar body has radius $50 \,R_{s}$ and temperature $2 \,T_{s}$ and is at a distance of $2 \times 10^{10} \,AU$ from the earth. Here, $AU$ refers to the earth-sun distance and $R_{s}$ and $T_{s}$ refer to the sun's radius and temperature, respectively. Take, both star and sun to be ideal black bodies. The ratio of the power received on earth from the stellar body as compared to that received from the sun is close to
If a metallic sphere gets cooled from ${62^o}C$ to ${50^o}C$ in ${40^o}C$and in the next $10\;\min utes$gets cooled to ${42^o}C$, then the temperature of the surroundings is ......... $^oC$
Spheres $P$ and $Q$ are uniformly constructed from the same material which is a good conductor of heat and the radius of $Q$ is thrice the radius of $P$. The rate of fall of temperature of $P$ is $x$ times that of $Q$ when both are at the same surface temperature. The value of $x$ is :
