Heat travels through vacuum by
(c) Heat radiations are electromagnetic waves of high wavelength.
We consider the radiation emitted by the human body. Which of the following statements is true ?
(d) Every body at all time, at all temperatures emits radiation (except at T=0 ). The radiation emitted by the human body is in the infra-red region.
The earth radiates in the infra-red region of the spectrum. The spectrum is correctly given by
(c)
Pick out the statement which is not true .
(b)
A hot and a cold body are kept in vacuum separated from each other. Which of the following cause decrease in temperature of the hot body ?
(a) In vacuum heat flows by the radiation mode only.
For a perfectly black body, its absorptive power is
(a) A perfectly black body is a good absorber of radiations falls on it. So it’s absorptive power is 1.
Certain substance emits only the wavelengths and when it is at a high temperature. When this substance is at a colder temperature, it will absorb only the following wavelengths ?
(d) According to Kirchoff’s law in spectroscopy. If a substance emit certain wavelengths at high temperature, it absorbs the same wavelength at comparatively lower temperature.
As compared to the person with white skin, the person with black skin will experience
(b) A person with dark skin absorbs more heat radiation and feels more heat. It also radiates more heat and feels more cold.
Relation between emissivity e and absorptive power a is (for black body)
(a) For a black body emissivity = absorptive power.
Which of the following statements is wrong ?
(b) Highly polished mirror like surfaces are good reflectors, but not good radiators.
