The total energy of a black body radiation source is collected for five minutes and used to heat water. The temperature of the water increases from $10.0^{\circ} C$ to $11.0^{\circ} C$. The absolute temperature of the black body is doubled and its surface area halved and the experiment repeated for the same time. Which of the following statements would be most nearly correct?

  • A
    The temperature of the water would increase from $10.0^{\circ} C$ to a final temperature of $12^{\circ} C$
  • B
    The temperature of the water would increase from $10.0^{\circ} C$ to a final temperature of $18^{\circ} C$
  • C
    The temperature of the water would increase from $10.0^{\circ} C$ to a final temperature of $14^{\circ} C$
  • D
    The temperature of the water would increase from $10.0^{\circ} C$ to a final temperature of $11^{\circ} C$

Two spheres of radii $8 \ cm$ and $2 \ cm$ are cooling. Their temperatures are $127^{\circ} C$ and $527^{\circ} C$ respectively. Find the ratio of energy radiated by them in the same time.

$A$ 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 $2767^{\circ} C$?
