Transmission Of Heat Question 299

Question: A black body radiates energy at the rate of $ 1\times 10^{5}J/s\times m^{2} $ at temperature of $ 227{}^\circ C $ . The temperature to which it must be heated so that it radiates energy at rate of $ 1\times 10^{9}J\text{/}sm^{2} $ , is

Options:

A) 5000 K

B) 5000$ {}^\circ C $

C) 500 K

D) 500$ {}^\circ C $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

$ \frac{E _{2}}{E _{1}}={{( \frac{T _{2}}{T _{1}} )}^{4}} $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ \frac{T _{2}}{T _{1}}={{( \frac{E _{2}}{E _{1}} )}^{1/4}}={{( \frac{10^{9}}{10^{5}} )}^{1/4}}=10 $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ T _{2}=10T _{1}=10\times (273+227)=5000,K $
