(b) $\frac{16 \pi^{2} r^{2} \sigma t^{4}}{R^{2}}$

(c) $\frac{r^{2} \sigma(t+273)^{4}}{R^{2}}$

(d) $\frac{4 \pi r^{2} \sigma t}{R^{2}}$

where $\sigma$ is the Stefan’s constant.

Answer:

Correct Answer: 30. (c)

Solution:

  1. (c) Power radiated by the sun at $t^{\circ} C$

$ =\sigma(t+273)^{4} 4 \pi r^{2} $

Power received by a unit surface

$ =\frac{\sigma(t+273)^{4} 4 \pi r^{2}}{4 \pi R^{2}}=\frac{r^{2} \sigma(t+273)^{4}}{R^{2}} $
