Highly selective Backlog Qs for JEE MainPhysicsThermal Properties of Matter
Emissive and absorptive power of a material at 2000 ~K is 8 and 10 respectively, calculate the emissivity of IBB (Ideal black body)
Options
- A0.2
- B0.4
- C0.6
- D0.8
Correct answer
D. 0.8
Step-by-step solution
The ratio of emissive power to absorptive power is the same for all surfaces at the same temperature and is equal to the emissivity for a perfectly black body at that temperature. i.e, e a = Here, e=8, a=10 = e a = 8 10 =0.8
