Two bodies $A$ and $B$ have thermal emissivities of $0.01$ and $0.81$ respectively. The outer surface areas of the two bodies are the same. The two bodies emit total radiant power at the same rate. The wavelength ${\lambda _B}$ corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $B$ is shifted from the wavelength corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation from $A$ by $1.00\;\mu m$. If the temperature of $A$ is $5802\;K$,then:

  • A
    The temperature of $B$ is $1934\;K$
  • B
    ${\lambda _B} = 1.5\;\mu m$
  • C
    The temperature of $B$ is $11604\;K$
  • D
    Both $(a)$ and $(b)$

$A$ wall with a cavity consists of two layers of brick separated by a layer of air. All three layers have the same thickness,and the thermal conductivity of the brick is much greater than that of air. The left layer is at a higher temperature than the right layer,and a steady-state condition exists. Which of the following graphs correctly predicts the variation of temperature $T$ with distance $d$ inside the cavity?

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 $P$)
