The energy spectrum of a black body has maximum energy at a wavelength of $\lambda_0$. Now, the temperature of the black body is increased such that the maximum energy is obtained at a wavelength of $3\lambda_0/4$. By what factor will the power radiated by the black body increase?

  • A
    $256/81$
  • B
    $64/27$
  • C
    $16/9$
  • D
    $4/3$

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

The temperature of a body is increased from $T_1 = 127^{\circ}C$ to $T_2 = 227^{\circ}C$. The ambient temperature is $T_0 = 27^{\circ}C$. The energies emitted per second by the body at $T_1$ and $T_2$ are $E_1$ and $E_2$ respectively. The ratio of $\frac{E_2}{E_1}$ is:

If the radiation emitted by a perfect radiator has maximum intensity at a wavelength of $2900 Å$, the intensity of radiation emitted by it is (Stefan-Boltzmann's constant $= 5.67 \times 10^{-8} W m^{-2} K^{-4}$ and Wien's constant $= 2.9 \times 10^{-3} m K$).
