Problem

A solid sphere of radius 5.0 cm5.0\,\text{cm} behaves as an ideal blackbody and is kept at 800 K800\,\text{K}. Take σ=5.67×10−8 W m−2 K−4\sigma = 5.67\times10^{-8}\,\text{W m}^{-2}\,\text{K}^{-4}. Calculate the total power it radiates. (a) 1.83×102 W1.83\times10^{2}\,\text{W} (b) 2.30×102 W2.30\times10^{2}\,\text{W} (c) 7.30×102 W7.30\times10^{2}\,\text{W} (d) 2.92×103 W2.92\times10^{3}\,\text{W}
