Heat loss takes place from a body maintained at a temperature of $400^{\circ} C$ to the surrounding air at $30^{\circ} C$ by convection and to the surrounding surfaces at $30^{\circ} C$ by radiation. The Newton's cooling coefficient is $20 \ W / m^2 \ K$ and the Stefan-Boltzmann constant is $5.67 \times 10^{-8} \ W / m^2 \ K^4$. If the rate of heat loss by convection is equal to the rate of heat loss by radiation, the emissivity of the body surface is

  • A
    $0.35$
  • B
    $0.46$
  • C
    $0.55$
  • D
    $0.66$

One end of a uniform metal rod of length $100 \, cm$ is placed in ice and the other end is placed in boiling water. A point of the rod which is at a distance of $60 \, cm$ from the ice end is maintained at a constant temperature of $325^{\circ} C$. If $2 \, g$ of water is converted into steam per second, the mass of ice melted per second in steady state is (Latent heat of steam $= 6.75$ times latent heat of fusion of ice). (in $g$)

$A$ black body radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\lambda$ at temperature $T_1$ and its emissive power is $E$. When the temperature of the body is changed to $T_2$, it radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\frac{2\lambda}{3}$, then the emissive power will become

Power radiated by a black body at temperature $T_1$ is $P$ and it radiates maximum energy at a wavelength $\lambda_1$. If the temperature of the black body is changed from $T_1$ to $T_2$, it radiates maximum energy at a wavelength $\frac{\lambda_1}{2}$. The power radiated at $T_2$ is (in $P$)
