The blackbody radiation emitted from a furnace peaks at a wavelength of 3.3 10-6 m (0.0000033 m). What is the temperature inside the furnace In K?
A furnace emits radiation at 2000 K. Treating it as black body radiation, calculate the wavelength at which the emission is maximum.
a.) 1.449 x 10 ^ -6 m
b.) 2.449 x 10 ^ -6 m
c.) 3.449 x 10 ^ -6 m
d.) 4.449 x10 ^ -6 m
The power emitted by a blackbody is proportional to T^4. If the temperature of the blackbody goes from 3000K to 6000K, by how much (by what factor, 2, 3, 8, etc) does the power increase?
