Two identical plates $P$ and $Q$,radiating as perfect black bodies,are kept in vacuum at constant absolute temperatures $T_P$ and $T_Q$,respectively,with $T_Q < T_P$,as shown in Fig. $1$. The radiated power transferred per unit area from $P$ to $Q$ is $W_0$. Subsequently,two more plates,identical to $P$ and $Q$,are introduced between $P$ and $Q$,as shown in Fig. $2$. Assume that heat transfer takes place only between adjacent plates. If the power transferred per unit area in the direction from $P$ to $Q$ (Fig. $2$) in the steady state is $W_S$,then the ratio $\frac{W_0}{W_S}$ is $.....$

The total energy radiated from a black body source is collected for one minute and is used to heat a quantity of water. The temperature of water is found to increase from $20^{\circ}C$ to $20.5^{\circ}C$. If the absolute temperature of the black body is doubled and the experiment is repeated with the same quantity of water at $20^{\circ}C$,the temperature of water will be....... $^{\circ}C$
