1. A black body of mass 30 g and sp. heat 0.1, area 6 cm2 and temp 327ºC is put inside an enclosure
which is maintained at a temperature of 27ºC. If the temp of the body falls at the rate of 4ºC/s,
calculate Stefan’s constant. J = 4.2 × 107 erg/cal.
[Ans: 7 × 10-5 erg cm-2 s-1deg-4]

2. Two ideal black bodies A and B at temperatures 227ºC and 327ºC respectively are placed in an
evacuated enclosure whose walls are blackend and kept at 27ºC. Compare their rates of loss of heat.
[Ans: E1/E2 = 544/1215]

3. A blackend solid copper sphere of radius 3 cm is kept in an evacuated enclosure whose walls are
kept at 27ºC. At what rate must energy be supplied to the sphere in order to keep its temperature
steady at 127ºC. σ = 5.75 × 10-5 erg cm2 s-1 deg-4.
[Ans: 3.62 watt]

4. The wavelength of maximum energy in the lunar spectrum is found to be 14.46 × 10-4 cm. If the
value of the Wein’s constant be 0.293 cm. K. Find the effective lunar temperature.
[Ans: 200K]
