$A$ 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 the star and the 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

  • A
    $4 \times 10^{-20}$
  • B
    $2 \times 10^{-6}$
  • C
    $10^{-3}$
  • D
    $10^{-16}$

$Assertion :$ Bodies radiate heat at all temperatures.
$Reason :$ Rate of radiation of heat is proportional to the fourth power of absolute temperature.

If a black body emits $0.5 \ J$ of energy per second when it is at $27^{\circ} C$,then the amount of energy emitted by it when it is at $627^{\circ} C$ will be (in $J$)
