The correct Answer is:
To calculate the amount of radiant energy from a black body at given temperatures, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann Law, which states that the power radiated per unit area of a black body is directly proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature (in Kelvin). The formula is given by: \[ E = \sigma T^4 \] where: - \( E \) is the radiant energy (in watts per square meter, W/m²), - \( \sigma \) is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, \( 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{W/m}^2\text{K}^4 \), - \( T \) is the absolute temperature in Kelvin. ### Step-by-step Solution #### Part (i): Temperature = 27°C 1. **Convert Celsius to Kelvin**: \[ T = 27 + 273 = 300 \, \text{K} \] 2. **Apply the Stefan-Boltzmann Law**: \[ E = \sigma T^4 = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \times (300)^4 \] 3. **Calculate \( (300)^4 \)**: \[ (300)^4 = 300^4 = 81 \times 10^8 \] 4. **Substitute back into the equation**: \[ E = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \times 81 \times 10^8 \] 5. **Simplify the expression**: \[ E = 5.67 \times 81 \, \text{W/m}^2 \] \[ E = 459.27 \, \text{W/m}^2 \] #### Part (ii): Temperature = 2727°C 1. **Convert Celsius to Kelvin**: \[ T = 2727 + 273 = 3000 \, \text{K} \] 2. **Apply the Stefan-Boltzmann Law**: \[ E = \sigma T^4 = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \times (3000)^4 \] 3. **Calculate \( (3000)^4 \)**: \[ (3000)^4 = 81 \times 10^{12} \] 4. **Substitute back into the equation**: \[ E = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \times 81 \times 10^{12} \] 5. **Simplify the expression**: \[ E = 5.67 \times 81 \times 10^{4} \, \text{W/m}^2 \] \[ E = 459.27 \times 10^{4} \, \text{W/m}^2 \] \[ E = 4.59 \times 10^{6} \, \text{W/m}^2 \] ### Final Answers: - For 27°C: \( E = 459.27 \, \text{W/m}^2 \) - For 2727°C: \( E = 4.59 \times 10^{6} \, \text{W/m}^2 \)
