NEET Physics Thermometry, Calorimetry & Thermal Expansion Question Bank Mock Test - Thermal Properties of Matter

  • question_answer
    A sphere and a cube of same material and same volume are heated up to same temperature and allowed to cool in the same surroundings. The ratio of the amounts of radiations emitted in equa time intervals will be

    A) \[1:1\]                          

    B) \[\frac{4\pi }{3}:1\]

    C) \[{{\left( \frac{\pi }{6} \right)}^{1/3}}:1\]         

    D) \[\frac{1}{2}{{\left( \frac{4\pi }{3} \right)}^{1/3}}:1\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] \[Q=\sigma At({{T}^{4}}-{{T}_{0}}^{4})\] If \[T,{{T}_{0}},\sigma \] and \[t\] are same for both bodies then \[\frac{{{Q}_{sphere}}}{{{Q}_{cube}}}=\frac{{{A}_{sphere}}}{{{A}_{cube}}}=\frac{4\pi {{r}^{2}}}{6{{a}^{2}}}\]                 (i) But according to problem, volume of sphere = volume of cube \[\Rightarrow \frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}={{a}^{3}}\Rightarrow a={{\left( \frac{4}{3}\pi  \right)}^{1/3}}r\] Substituting the value of a in Eq. (i), we get \[\frac{{{Q}_{sphere}}}{{{Q}_{cube}}}=\frac{4\pi {{r}^{2}}}{6{{a}^{2}}}=\frac{4\pi {{r}^{2}}}{6{{\left\{ {{\left( \frac{4}{3}\pi  \right)}^{1/3}}r \right\}}^{2}}}=\frac{4\pi {{r}^{2}}}{6{{\left( \frac{4}{3}\pi  \right)}^{2/3}}{{r}^{2}}}\] \[={{\left( \frac{\pi }{6} \right)}^{1/3}}:1\]
