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 \(1.00~\mu\text{m}\). If the temperature of \(A\) is \(5802~\text{K}\):

A black body is at a temperature of 2880 K. The energy of radiation emitted by this object with wavelength between 499 nm and 500 nm is ${\mathrm{U}}_1$, between 999 nm and 1000nm is ${\mathrm{U}}_2$ and between 1499 nm and 1500 nm is ${\mathrm{U}}_3$.

4. \(Q_a=Q_b=Q_c\)

The total energy radiated from a black body source is collected for one minute and is used to heat a quantity of water. The temperature of water is found to increase  from   20$°\mathrm{C}$ to 20.5$°\mathrm{C}$ . If the absolute temperature of the black body is doubled and the experiment is repeated with the same quantity of water at 20$°\mathrm{C}$, the temperature of water will be

(4) Both spheres will cool at the same rate only for small values of T

A solid copper cube of edges 1 cm is suspended in an evacuated enclosure. Its temperature is found to fall from 100$°\mathrm{C}$ to 99$°\mathrm{C}$ in 100 s . Another solid copper cube of edges 2 cm, with similar surface nature, is suspended in a similar manner.
