The ratio of emissive power of perfectly black body at 1327\ ^{}^{\circ}\text{C} to that at 527\ ^{}^{\circ}\text{C} is

Options

  1. A4:14 : 1
  2. B16:116 : 1
  3. C64:164 : 1
  4. D8:18 : 1

Correct answer

B. 16:116 : 1

Step-by-step solution

According to Stefan-Boltzmann law, the emissive power of a perfectly black body is given by E=σT4E = \sigma T^4, where TT is the absolute temperature.

Converting the given temperatures to Kelvin:
T_1 = 1327^{}^{\circ}\text{C} + 273 = 1600\text{ K}
T_2 = 527^{}^{\circ}\text{C} + 273 = 800\text{ K}

The ratio of their emissive powers is:
E1E2=(T1T2)4\dfrac{E_1}{E_2} = \left(\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}\right)^4

Substituting the values:
E1E2=(1600800)4=(2)4=16\dfrac{E_1}{E_2} = \left(\dfrac{1600}{800}\right)^4 = (2)^4 = 16

The ratio is 16:116 : 1.

Answer: 16:116 : 1
