    Radiation from a black body at the thermodynamic temperature T_(1) is measured by a small detector at distance d_(1) from it. When the temperature is increased to T_(2) and the distance to d_(2) , the power received by the detector is unchanged. What is the ratio d_(2)//d_(1) ?

    Give the range of temperature that can be measured by using them.

    A bar measured with a vernier caliper is found to be 180 mm long. The temperature during the measurement is 10^@C . The measurement error will be if the scale of the vernier caliper has been graduated at a temeprature of 20^@C . ( alpha=1.1xx10^(-5).^(@)C^(-1) . Assume that the length of the bar does not change.)
