6. ⇒  (MHT CET 2023 11th May Evening Shift )

Two bodies A and B at temperatures ' T 1 ' K and ' T 2 ' K respectively have the same dimensions. Their emissivities are in the ratio 1 : 3 . If they radiate the same amount of heat per unit area per unit time, then the ratio of their temperatures ( T 1 : T 2 ) is

A. 1 : 3

B. 3 1 / 4 : 1

C. 9 1 / 4 : 1

D. 81 : 1

Correct Option is (B)

From Stefan - Boltzmann's law

dQ dt = e ( σ AT 4 )

Given A and dQ dt are same for both the bodies

e 1   T 1 4 = e 2   T 2 4 ( T 1   T 2 ) 4 = e 2 e 1 = 3 1 T 1   T 2 = 3 4 1 = 3 1 4 1

Two spherical black bodies of radii ' r 1 ' and ' r 2 ' at temperature ' T 1 ' and ' T 2 ' respectively radiate power in the ratio 1 : 2 Then r 1 : r 2 is

A. 1 2 ( T 2   T 1 ) 4

B. 1 2 ( T 2   T 1 ) 2

C. 2 ( T 1   T 2 ) 4

D. 2 ( T 1 T 2 ) 2

Correct Option is (B)

Power Radiated by black body, P = σ AT 4

For first black body:

P 1 = σ 4 π r 1 2   T 1 4

For second black body:

P 2 = σ 4 π r 2 2   T 2 4

The ratio will be:

P 1 P 2 = σ 4 π r 1 2   T 1 4 σ 4 π r 2 2   T 2 4 1 2 = r 1 2   T 1 4 r 2 2   T 2 4 r 1 2 r 2 2 = 1 2 T 2 4   T 1 4 r 1 r 2 = 1 2 ( T 2   T 1 ) 2

If the temperature of a hot body is increased by 50 % , then the increase in the quantity of emitted heat radiation will be approximately

A. 125 %

B. 200 %

C. 300 %

D. 400 %

Correct Option is (D)

 Given:  T 2 = T 1 + 50 100   T 1   T 2 = 1.5   T 1

According to Stefan's law,

Q At = σ T 4

Percentage change in radiation is,

Δ E % = T 2 4 T 1 4 T 1 4 × 100 Δ E % = ( 1.5 ) 4 T 1 4 T 1 4 T 1 4 × 100 Δ E % 400 %

9. ⇒  (MHT CET 2023 10th May Evening Shift )

A black body radiates maximum energy at wavelength ' λ ' and its emissive power is 'E' Now due to change in temperature of that body, it radiates maximum energy at wavelength 2 λ 3 . At that temperature emissive power is

A. 81 16

B. 27 32

C. 18 10

D. 9 4

Correct Option is (A)

From Stefan-Boltzmann's law,

P = dQ dt = A σ T 4

Also, from Wien's displacement law,

λ max = b T ( b  Wien's constant  ) T = b λ

P = A σ ( b λ ) 4 P 1 ( λ ) 4

Ratio of power dissipated is P 2 P 1 = ( λ 1 λ 2 ) 4 Given λ 1 = λ and λ 2 = 2 λ 3

P 2 P 1 = ( λ ) 4 ( 2 λ 3 ) 4 = 81 16

10. ⇒  (MHT CET 2023 10th May Morning Shift )

A black body radiates maximum energy at wavelength ' λ ' and its emissive power is E . Now due to change in temperature of that body, it radiates maximum energy at wavelength 2 λ 3 . At that temperature emissive power is

A. 51 E 8

B. 81 E 16

C. 61 E 27

D. 71 E 19

Correct Option is (B)

From Wien's Displacement law,

λ max = b T T = b λ max

From Stefan-Boltzmann law

E = σ T 4 = σ ( b λ max ) 4

Let the new emissive power be E .

E = σ ( b 2 λ max 3 ) 4 E = 81 16 E
