उत्तर
(a) Both will emit equal amount of radiation per unit time in the beginning.
(b) Both will absorb equal amount of radiation from the surrounding in the beginning.
Let the temperature of the surroundings be T0
From the Stefan-Boltzmann law, the energy of thermal radiation emitted per unit time by a blackbody of surface area A is given by `u = σAT^4`
Here, σ is Stephen's constant.
Also, the energy absorbed per unit time by the body is given by
`u_0 = eσAT_0^4`
As the two spheres have equal radii and temperatures, their rate of absorption and emission will be equal in the beginning.

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.
