Two electric lamps $A$ and $B$ radiate the same power. Their filaments have the same dimensions and have emissivities $e_A$ and $e_B$. Their surface temperatures are $T_A$ and $T_B$. The ratio $\frac{T_A}{T_B}$ will be equal to :-

  • A
    $(\frac{e_B}{e_A})^{1/4}$
  • B
    $(\frac{e_B}{e_A})^{1/2}$
  • C
    $(\frac{e_A}{e_B})^{1/2}$
  • D
    $(\frac{e_A}{e_B})^{1/4}$

$A$ metal is heated in a furnace where a sensor is kept above the metal surface to read the power radiated $(P)$ by the metal. The sensor has a scale that displays $\log_{2}(P / P_0)$,where $P_0$ is a constant. When the metal surface is at a temperature of $487^{\circ} C$,the sensor shows a value of $1$. Assume that the emissivity of the metallic surface remains constant. What is the value displayed by the sensor when the temperature of the metal surface is raised to $2767^{\circ} C$?
