AIPMT PRELIMS 2012 Physics Black Body Radiation MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

If the radius of a star is R and it acts as a black body, what would be the temperature of the star, in which the rate of energy production is Q?

A

(Q/4πR²σ)^(1/4)

B

Q/4πR²σ

C

(Q/4πR²σ)^(-1/2)

D

(4πR²Q/σ)^(1/4)

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using Stefan-Boltzmann law, Q = 4πR²σT⁴. Solving for T gives T = (Q/4πR²σ)^(1/4).
