उत्तर
(a) the maximum intensity of radiation will be near the frequency 2v0
(c) the total energy emitted will increase by a factor of 16
From Wein's displacement law,
λmT = b ( a constant )
or `(cT)/(Vm) = b`
Here, T is the absolute temperature of the body.
So, as the temperature is doubled to keep the product on the left hand side constant, frequency is also doubled.
From Stefan's law, we know that the rate of energy emission is proportional to T4
This implies that total energy emitted will increase by a factor of (2)4, which is equal to 16.

The left end of a copper rod (length = 20 cm, area of cross section = 0.20 cm2) is maintained at 20°C and the right end is maintained at 80°C. Neglecting any loss of heat through radiation, find (a) the temperature at a point 11 cm from the left end and (b) the heat current through the rod. Thermal conductivity of copper = 385 W m−1°C−1.
Assume that the total surface area of a human body is 1.6 m2 and that it radiates like an ideal radiator. Calculate the amount of energy radiated per second by the body if the body temperature is 37°C. Stefan constant σ is 6.0 × 10−8 W m−2 K−4.
A cylindrical rod of length 50 cm and cross sectional area 1 cm2 is fitted between a large ice chamber at 0°C and an evacuated chamber maintained at 27°C as shown in the figure. Only small portions of the rod are inside the chamber and the rest is thermally insulated from the surrounding. The cross section going into the evacuated chamber is blackened so that it completely absorbs any radiation falling on it. The temperature of the blackened end is 17°C when steady state is reached. Stefan constant σ = 6 × 10−8 W m−2 K−4. Find the thermal conductivity of the material of the rod.
