$A$ hot black body emits energy at the rate of $16 \ J \ m^{-2} \ s^{-1}$ and its most intense radiation corresponds to $20,000 \ \mathring{A}$. When the temperature of this body is further increased and its most intense radiation corresponds to $10,000 \ \mathring{A}$,then the energy radiated in $J \ m^{-2} \ s^{-1}$ will be

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

$A$ rod of length $L$ and uniform cross-sectional area has varying thermal conductivity which changes linearly from $2K$ at end $A$ to $K$ at the other end $B$. The ends $A$ and $B$ of the rod are maintained at constant temperatures $100^oC$ and $0^oC$, respectively. At steady state, the graph of temperature $T = T(x)$, where $x$ is the distance from end $A$, will be:

Three rods of the same dimension have thermal conductivities $3K$,$2K$,and $K$. They are arranged as shown in the figure,with their ends at $100^oC$,$50^oC$,and $20^oC$. The temperature of their junction is ......... $^oC$.

$A$ 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
