Q109 / 197 · NEET 2009 (Mains) · Physics

A black body at $227^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ radiates heat at the rate of $7 \mathrm{cals} / \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~s}$. At a temperature of $727^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$, the rate of heat radiated in the same units will be :

  • A
    80
  • B
    60
  • C
    50
  • Correct answer
    D
    112

Solution

$\mathrm{P} \propto \mathrm{T}^4$ $$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{\mathrm{P}_2}{\mathrm{P}_1}=\left(\frac{1000}{500}\right)^4 \\ & \mathrm{P}_2=16 \mathrm{P}_1=112 \end{aligned} $$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
