A

`A`, surface area of the body

B

`S`, specific heat of the body

C

`(1)/(m)`, m being mass of the body

D

e, emissity of the body

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C

`(dQ)/(dt) = esigmaA(theta^(4)-theta_(0)^(4)) approx(3esigmaAtheta_(0)^(3))Deltatheta`
`(dQ)/(dt) = esigmaA(theta^(4)-theta_(0)^(4)) approx(3esigmaAtheta_(0)^(3))Deltatheta`
