Two bodies, AA and BB, which possess equal surface areas, are maintained at temperatures of 10^{}^{{}^{\circ}} C and 20^{}^{{}^{\circ}} C. The ratio of the thermal radiation emitted by AA and BB in a specific time interval is

Options

  1. A1:21 : 2
  2. B1:41 : 4
  3. C1:1.151 : 1.15
  4. D1:161 : 16

Correct answer

C. 1:1.151 : 1.15

Step-by-step solution

According to Stefan-Boltzmann law, the thermal radiation emitted by a body per unit time is given by E=σAT4E = \sigma A T^4

Given temperatures are TA=10∘C=283T_A = 10^{{}^{{}^{\circ}}}C = 283 K and TB=20∘C=293T_B = 20^{{}^{{}^{\circ}}}C = 293 K

The ratio of thermal radiation emitted is

EAEB=(TATB)4=(283293)4\dfrac{E_A}{E_B} = \left(\dfrac{T_A}{T_B}\right)^4 = \left(\dfrac{283}{293}\right)^4

EBEA=(293283)4=(1+10283)4\dfrac{E_B}{E_A} = \left(\dfrac{293}{283}\right)^4 = \left(1 + \dfrac{10}{283}\right)^4

Calculating the value, we get \left(\dfrac{293}{283}\right)^4 \approx 1.149 \approx 1.15<br><br>Therefore,theratiois<br><br>Therefore, the ratio is1 : 1.15
