# The Thermal Radiation Emitted by a Body is Proportional to Tn Where T is Its Absolute Temperature. the Value of N is Exactly 4 for - Physics

#### Question

The thermal radiation emitted by a body is proportional to Tn where T is its absolute temperature. The value of n is exactly 4 for

•  a blackbody

• all bodies

• bodies painted black only

• polished bodies only

#### Solution

all bodies

From Stefan-Boltzmann law, the energy of the thermal radiation emitted per unit time by a blackbody of surface area A is given by u = σAT^4 here , σ is Stefan-Boltzmann constant.
This law holds true for all the bodies.
