Determine the total power emitted by a spherical object of radius 4 cm whose surface emissivity is 0.60 and whose radiation peaks at 800 nm. Use b=2.898×10−3 m Kb = 2.898 \times 10^{-3}\,\text{m K} and σ=5.67×10−8 W m−2K−4\sigma = 5.67 \times 10^{-8}\,\text{W m}^{-2}\text{K}^{-4}. (a) 2.0×105 W2.0 \times 10^{5}\,\text{W} (b) 1.2×104 W1.2 \times 10^{4}\,\text{W} (c) 1.2×105 W1.2 \times 10^{5}\,\text{W} (d) 3.0×104 W3.0 \times 10^{4}\,\text{W}
