Four situations are shown in List-I. Match each situation to the corresponding relation between heat energy and temperature in List-II.

List-I

List-II

(P) A and B are equal-sized spheres in an isothermal chamber at equilibrium temperature . A is black; B is gray with emissivity 0.8. Consider steady state.

(1) or

(Q) Spectral emissive power versus wavelength for equal-area black bodies A and B:

(2)

(R) A solid sphere A is connected to a power source inside a thick spherical shell B. Both surfaces are perfect black bodies at steady state.

(3) Heat energy radiated by A is greater than B.

(S) Large black plates (1) and (2) are maintained at and , with . A and B are large plates of emissivity 1. Consider steady state.

(4) Heat energy radiated by B is greater than A.

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

For P, the sphere temperatures in the isothermal chamber are equal at equilibrium.

A has higher emissivity, so its radiated power is greater: P → 3,1.

For Q, the peak for B occurs at a shorter wavelength.

With equal surface areas, B radiates more: Q → 2,4.

For R, heat flows from the powered inner sphere A to shell B.

Therefore R → 1.

For S, heat flows from the hotter surface (1) toward surface (2).

Therefore S → 1. The printed code is (B).
