The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of energy emitted by a black body when its dimensions and temperature change. We will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for this calculation, which states that the energy emitted per unit time (E) by a black body is given by: \[ E = \sigma A T^4 \] where: - \( \sigma \) is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, - \( A \) is the area of the surface, - \( T \) is the absolute temperature in Kelvin. ### Step 1: Calculate the initial area and temperature The initial dimensions of the rectangular surface are: - Length = 8 cm - Breadth = 4 cm Thus, the initial area \( A \) is: \[ A = 8 \, \text{cm} \times 4 \, \text{cm} = 32 \, \text{cm}^2 \] The initial temperature \( T_1 \) is given as: \[ T_1 = 127^\circ C = 127 + 273 = 400 \, K \] ### Step 2: Calculate the initial energy emitted Using the Stefan-Boltzmann law, the initial energy emitted \( E_1 \) is: \[ E_1 = \sigma A T_1^4 \] \[ E_1 = \sigma (32 \, \text{cm}^2) (400 \, K)^4 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the new area and temperature When the length and breadth are reduced to half, the new dimensions are: - New Length = \( \frac{8}{2} = 4 \, \text{cm} \) - New Breadth = \( \frac{4}{2} = 2 \, \text{cm} \) Thus, the new area \( A' \) is: \[ A' = 4 \, \text{cm} \times 2 \, \text{cm} = 8 \, \text{cm}^2 \] The new temperature \( T_2 \) is given as: \[ T_2 = 327^\circ C = 327 + 273 = 600 \, K \] ### Step 4: Calculate the new energy emitted Using the Stefan-Boltzmann law, the new energy emitted \( E_2 \) is: \[ E_2 = \sigma A' T_2^4 \] \[ E_2 = \sigma (8 \, \text{cm}^2) (600 \, K)^4 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the ratio of emissions Now, we can find the ratio of the new energy emitted to the initial energy emitted: \[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{E_2}{E_1} = \frac{\sigma (8 \, \text{cm}^2) (600 \, K)^4}{\sigma (32 \, \text{cm}^2) (400 \, K)^4} \] The \( \sigma \) cancels out: \[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{8 \times (600)^4}{32 \times (400)^4} \] ### Step 6: Simplify the ratio This can be simplified further: \[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{8}{32} \times \frac{(600)^4}{(400)^4} = \frac{1}{4} \times \left(\frac{600}{400}\right)^4 \] \[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{1}{4} \times \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^4 = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{81}{16} = \frac{81}{64} \] ### Final Answer The ratio of emission of energy becomes: \[ \frac{81}{64} \]
