The temperature of the surface of the Sun is nearly \(6000~\text{K}\) and the amount of total energy emitted by the Sun per second is \(4\times10^{26}~\text{J}.\) If the temperature of the surface of the Sun is \(18000~\text{K},\) then the amount of thermal radiation emitted by the same will be:
1. \(3.24\times10^{28}~\text{W}\)
2. \(2.52\times10^{28}~\text{W}\)
3. \(8\times10^{26}~\text{W}\)
4. \(16\times10^{27}~\text{W}\)

| Assertion (A): | A body that is a good radiator is also a good absorber of radiation at a given wavelength. |
| Reason (R): | According to Kirchhoff's law, the absorptivity of a body is equal to its emissivity at a given wavelength. |

Two bodies A and B have thermal emissivities of 0.01 and 0.81 respectively. The outer surface areas of the two bodies are the same. The two bodies emit total radiant power at the same rate. The wavelength of B corresponding to maximum spectral radiancy in the radiation differs from that of A by 1.00 µm. If the temperature of A is 5802 K:
1. the temperature of B is 17406 K.
2. = 1.5 µm
3. the temperature of B is 11604 K.
4. the temperature of B is 2901 K.
