A copper rod of \(88\) cm and an aluminium rod of an unknown length have an equal increase in their lengths independent of an increase in temperature. The length of the aluminium rod is:

A black body at \(1227^\circ\text{C}\) emits radiations with maximum intensity at a wavelength of \(5000~\mathring {A}\). If the temperature of the body is increased by \(1000^\circ\text{C},\) the maximum intensity will be observed at:
1. \(4000~\mathring {A}\)
2. \(5000~\mathring {A}\)
3. \(6000~\mathring {A}\)
4. \(3000~\mathring {A}\)
A black body is at \(727^\circ\text{C}.\) The rate at which it emits energy is proportional to:

3. | \((1000)^2\) | 4. | \((727)^4\) |
Assuming the sun to have a spherical outer surface of radius \(r,\) radiating like a black body at temperature \(t^\circ \text{C},\) the power received by a unit surface of the earth (normal to the incident rays) at a distance \(R\) from the centre of the sun will be:

A black body at \(227^{\circ}~\mathrm{C}\) radiates heat at the rate of \(7~ \mathrm{cal-cm^{-2}s^{-1}}\). At a temperature of \(727^{\circ}~\mathrm{C}\), the rate of heat radiated in the same units will be:
