$A$ sphere and a cube of the same material and same volume are heated up to the same temperature and allowed to cool in the same surroundings. The ratio of the amounts of radiation emitted will be

  • A
    $1 : 1$
  • B
    $\frac{4\pi}{3} : 1$
  • C
    $\left( \frac{\pi}{6} \right)^{1/3} : 1$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} \left( \frac{4\pi}{3} \right)^{2/3} : 1$

Two spheres made of the same material have radii in the ratio $1:2$. Both are at the same temperature. The ratio of heat radiation energy emitted per second by them is:

Radiation from a black body at the thermodynamic temperature $T_1$ is measured by a small detector at distance $d_1$ from it. When the temperature is increased to $T_2$ and the distance to $d_2$,the power received by the detector is unchanged. What is the ratio $d_2/d_1$?

Two spheres of the same material have radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ and surface temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively. If their emissive power (total power radiated) is the same,find the ratio of their radii $r_1/r_2$.
