A thin wire of length l and surface area...

A thin wire of length l and surface area A is heated to a temperature T. Its electrci resistance is R, emissivity of its surface is e. How much electric current should be maintained through the wire so as. To maintain its temperature at T ? Assume the temperature of surroundings to be negligible compared to T. Use Stefan.s constant as `sigma` :

A

`(eA sigmaT^(4))/( R )`

B

`(e sigmaT^(4)//R)^((1)/(2))`

C

`((eA sigmaT^(4))^((1)/(2)))/( R )`

D

`((eA sigmaT^(4))/( R ))^((1)/(2))`
