$A$ metal is heated in a furnace where a sensor is kept above the metal surface to read the power radiated $(P)$ by the metal. The sensor has a scale that displays $\log_{2}(P / P_0)$,where $P_0$ is a constant. When the metal surface is at a temperature of $487^{\circ} C$,the sensor shows a value of $1$. Assume that the emissivity of the metallic surface remains constant. What is the value displayed by the sensor when the temperature of the metal surface is raised to $2767^{\circ} C$?

$A$ solid cylinder of radius $r_1=2.5 \ cm$, length $l_1=5.0 \ cm$ and temperature $40^{\circ}C$ is suspended in an environment of temperature $60^{\circ}C$. The thermal radiation transfer rate for the cylinder is $1.0 \ W$. If the cylinder is stretched until its radius becomes $r_2=0.50 \ cm$, the thermal radiation transfer rate is changed to (in $W$)

Find the rate of radiation emitted per unit area per unit time by a black body at a temperature of $10^{3} \ K$ (in $J \ m^{-2} \ s^{-1}$).

Two spherical black bodies of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively radiate power in the ratio $1:2$. Then $r_1:r_2$ is:

The temperature of a lamp filament is $2100 \ K$ and its surface area is $4 \times 10^{-4} \ m^2$. If the emissivity of the filament is $0.453$,then the power of the lamp will be ....... $W$.
