The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to understand the phenomenon described and the relevant laws of thermodynamics and heat transfer. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Scenario**: - We have a body with a black spot on it. When this body is heated and taken into a dark room, it glows more than the rest of the body. 2. **Identifying the Relevant Law**: - The phenomenon can be explained using Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation, which states that at thermal equilibrium, the emissive power of a body (how much thermal radiation it emits) is directly related to its absorptive power (how much thermal radiation it absorbs). 3. **Applying Kirchhoff's Law**: - Kirchhoff's law implies that a perfect absorber (black body) is also a perfect emitter. This means that if a body absorbs more radiation (like the black spot), it will also emit more radiation when heated. 4. **Behavior of the Black Spot**: - The black spot absorbs more heat when the body is heated. When the body is taken into a dark room, the black spot will emit this absorbed energy as thermal radiation, causing it to glow more brightly compared to the other parts of the body. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the increased glow of the black spot when heated in a dark room can be explained by Kirchhoff's law, which relates the emissive power and absorptive power of the body. ### Final Answer: The phenomenon is explained on the basis of **Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation**. ---
