Two compartments in a cylinder with uniform cross section and total length 102 cm are separated by a sliding partition which can move but does not allow heat to pass across it. No molecules are present in either of the compartments. The radiation inside each compartment is in thermal equilibrium with its walls. The walls at the two ends of the cylinder are maintained at temperatures 2000 K and 4000 K , respectively. The sides are perfectly insulated. Find the location of the partition, measured from the left end of the container

Question
Two compartments in a cylinder with uniform cross section and total length 102 cm are
separated by a sliding partition which can move but does not allow heat to pass across it.
No molecules are present in either of the compartments. The radiation inside each
compartment is in thermal equilibrium with its walls. The walls at the two ends of the
cylinder are maintained at temperatures 2000 K and 4000 K, respectively. The sides are
perfectly insulated. Find the location of the partition, measured from the left end of the
container.
