$A$ black body is at $727^\circ C$. It emits energy at a rate which is proportional to

Two spheres of same material and radii $5 \ m$ and $2 \ m$ are at temperatures $200 \ K$ and $250 \ K$ respectively. The ratio of energies radiated by them per second is

$A$ human body has a surface area of approximately $1 \,m^2$. The normal body temperature is $10 \,K$ above the surrounding room temperature $T_0$. Take the room temperature to be $T_0=300 \,K$. For $T_0=300 \,K$, and the value of $\sigma T_0^4=460 \,W/m^2$ (where $\sigma$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant). Which of the following option(s) is/are correct?
[$A$] The amount of energy radiated by the body in $1 \,s$ is close to $60 \,J$.
[$B$] If the surrounding temperature reduces by a small amount $\Delta T_0 < < T_0$, then to maintain the same body temperature the same (living) human being needs to radiate $\Delta W = 4 \sigma T_0^3 \Delta T_0$ more energy per unit time.
[$C$] Reducing the exposed surface area of the body (e.g., by curling up) allows humans to maintain the same body temperature while reducing the energy lost by radiation.
[$D$] If the body temperature rises significantly, then the peak in the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the body would shift to longer wavelengths.

Calculate the surface temperature of the planet,if the energy radiated by unit area in unit time is $5.67 \times 10^4 \, W$. (Assume the planet to be a black body).
