    Two spherical black bodies of radii \[{{r}_{1}}\]and \[{{r}_{2}}\] with surface temperature \[{{T}_{1}}\]and \[{{T}_{2}}\]respectively. Radiate the same power. Then the ratio of r1 and r2 will be:

    A)  \[{{\left( \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}\]

    B)  \[{{\left( \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}} \right)}^{4}}\]

    C)   \[{{\left( \frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}} \right)}^{2}}\]

    D)  \[{{\left( \frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}} \right)}^{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Radius of Ist body \[={{r}_{1}},\]radius of \[\text{IInd}\] body\[={{r}_{2}}\] Temperature of \[\text{Ist}\] body \[={{T}_{1}}\] Temperature of \[\text{IInd}\]body\[\text{IInd}\] The emissivity of a black body. Or radiated power is given by \[E=A\sigma {{T}^{4}}\times t\propto A{{T}^{4}}\] or \[A\propto \frac{E}{{{T}^{4}}}\](where A is the surface area of the spherical black body) As in the condition of question the power radiated by first and second body is same. Hence, \[A\propto \frac{1}{{{T}^{4}}}\] so \[\frac{{{A}_{1}}}{{{A}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{T} \right)}^{4}}\] \[\frac{4\pi r_{1}^{2}}{4\pi r_{2}^{2}}={{\left( \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}} \right)}^{4}}\] Thus \[\frac{{{r}_{1}}}{{{r}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{T} \right)}^{4}}\]
