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 $(b)$

$A$ cylinder of radius $R$ made of a material of thermal conductivity $K_1$ is surrounded by a cylindrical shell of inner radius $R$ and outer radius $2R$ made of material of thermal conductivity $K_2$. The two ends of the combined system are maintained at two different temperatures. There is no loss of heat across the cylindrical surface and the system is in steady state. The effective thermal conductivity of the system is

In the variable state,the rate of flow of heat is controlled by

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

Determine whether the following statements are True or False:
$(a)$ "Conduction stops once a rod achieves thermal steady state."
$(b)$ $A$ surface that is a good emitter is also a good absorber.
$(c)$ $A$ perfect black body must be black in color.
$(d)$ The value of heat capacity is the same under different conditions for a given matter.

$A$ 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
