Explanation

(d) $Q \propto T^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{H_{A}}{H_{B}} = {(\frac{273 + 727}{273 + 327})}^{4} = {(\frac{10}{6})}^{4} = {(\frac{5}{3})}^{4} = \frac{625}{81}$

The energy emitted per second by a black body at 27 $° C$ is 10 J. If the temperature of the black body is increased to 327 $° C$ , the energy emitted per second will be

20 J

80 J

160 J

Explanation

(d) $Q_{Black body} = {AσT}^{4} t \Rightarrow Q \propto T^{4} \Rightarrow Q_{2} = Q_{1} {(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})}^{4} = 10 {(\frac{273 + 327}{273 + 27})}^{4} = 10 {(\frac{600}{300})}^{4} = 160 J$

The radiant energy from the sun incident normally at the surface of earth is $20 kcal / m^{2} \min$ . What would have been the radiant energy incident normally on the earth, if the sun had a temperature twice of the present one ?

$160 kcal / m^{2} \min$

$40 kcal / m^{2} \min$

$320 kcal / m^{2} \min$

$80 kcal / m^{2} \min$

Explanation

(c) $\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} = {(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})}^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{E_{2}}{20} = {(\frac{2 T}{T})}^{4} = 16 \Rightarrow E_{2} = 320 kcal / m^{2} \min$

The ratio of energy of emitted radiation of a black body at 27 $° C$ and 927 $° C$ is

1 : 4

1 : 16

1 : 64

1 : 256

Explanation

(d) $\frac{Q_{1}}{Q_{2}} = {(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}})}^{4} = {(\frac{273 + 27}{273 + 927})}^{4} = {(\frac{1}{4})}^{4} = \frac{1}{256}$

Two spherical black bodies of radii $r_{1}$ and $r_{2}$ and with surface temperature $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ respectively radiate the same power. Then the ratio of $r_{1}$ and $r_{2}$ will be

${(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})}^{2}$

${(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})}^{4}$

${(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}})}^{2}$

${(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}})}^{4}$

Explanation

(a) For black body, $P = {AεσT}^{4}$ . For same power $A \propto \frac{1}{T^{4}}$

$\Rightarrow {(\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}})}^{2} = {(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})}^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}} = {(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})}^{2}$

Explanation

(d) If temperature of surrounding is considered then
net loss of energy of a body by radiation

$Q = Aεσ (T^{4} - T_{0}^{4}) t \Rightarrow Q \propto (T^{4} - T_{0}^{4}) \Rightarrow \frac{Q_{1}}{Q_{2}} = \frac{T_{1}^{4} - T_{0}^{4}}{T_{2}^{4} - T_{0}^{4}} = \frac{{(273 + 200)}^{4} - {(273 + 27)}^{4}}{{(273 + 400)}^{4} - {(273 + 27)}^{4}} = \frac{{(473)}^{2} - {(300)}^{4}}{{(673)}^{4} - {(300)}^{4}}$

A black body radiates 20 W at temperature 227 $° C$ . If temperature of the black body is changed to 727 $° C$ then its radiating power will be

120W

240 W

320 W

360 W

Explanation

$\Rightarrow \frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} = {(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})}^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{P_{2}}{20} = {(\frac{273 + 727}{273 + 227})}^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{P_{2}}{20} = 2^{4} \Rightarrow P_{2} = 320 W$

The radiation emitted by a star A is 10,000 times that of the sun. If the surface temperatures of the sun and the star A are 6000 K and 2000 K respectively, the ratio of the radii of the star A and the sun is

300 : 1

600 : 1

900 : 1

1200 : 1

Explanation

(c) $Q \propto {AT}^{4} \propto r^{2} T^{4} \frac{Q_{star}}{Q_{sun}} = \frac{r_{star}^{2} . T_{star}^{4}}{r_{sun}^{2} . T_{sun}^{4}} \Rightarrow \frac{10000}{1} = \frac{r_{star}^{2}}{r_{sun}^{2}} \times {(\frac{6000}{2000})}^{4} \Rightarrow \frac{r_{star}}{r_{sun}} = \frac{100 \times 9}{1} = \frac{900}{1}$
