To calculate the percentage rise in the electric power consumed by the bulb when the temperature rises from 2000 K to 3000 K, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between power and temperature The power emitted by a black body is directly proportional to the fourth power of its temperature. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ P \propto T^4 \] ### Step 2: Define the initial and final temperatures Let: ...
