Heat and Thermodynamics 3 Question 30

30. Two spherical bodies A (radius 6cm ) and B (radius 18cm ) are at temperatures T1 and T2, respectively. The maximum intensity in the emission spectrum of A is at 500nm and in that of B is at 1500nm. Considering them to be black bodies, what will be the ratio of the rate of total energy radiated by A to that of B ?
