    When the sun is directly overhead, the surface of the earth receives 1.4 xx (10^3) W (m^-2) of sunlight. Assume that the light is monochromatic with average wavelength 500mn and that no light is absorbed in between the sun and the earth's surface.

    Two bodies A and B having equal surface areas are maintained at temperatures 10^(@)C . And 20^(@)C . The thermal radiation emitted in a given time by A and B are in the ratio

    Indian style of cooling drinking water is to keep it in a pitcher having porous walls. Water comes to the outer surface very slowly and evaporates .Most of the energy needed for evaporation is taken from the water itself and the water is cooled down. Assume that a pitcher contains 10kg water and 0.2g of water comes out per second. Assuming no backward heat transfer from the atmosphere to the water, calculate the time in which the temperature decreases by 5^(@)C . Specific heat capacity of water = 4200J kg^(-1).^@C^(-1) and latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.27 xx 10^(6)J kg^(-1)

    The light from the sun is found to have a maximum intensity near the wavelength of 470nm. Assuming that the surface o f the sun emits as a blackbody, calculate the temperature of the surface of the sun.

    The constant A in the Richardson-Dushman equation for tungsten is 60 xx 10^(4) A m^(-2) . The work function of tungsten is 4.5 eV . A tungsten cathode having a surface area 2.0 xx 10^(-5) m^2 is heated by a 24 W electric heater. In steady state, the heat radiated by the cathode equals the energy input by the heater and the temperature becomes constant. Assuming that the cathode radiates like a blackbody, calculate the saturation current due to thermions. Take Stefan constant = 6 xx 10^(-8) W m^(-2) K^(-4) . Assume that the thermions take only a small fraction of the heat supplied.
