Problem

A cavity behaves like a perfect blackbody and emits 200 W200\,\text{W} through an opening of area 2.0 cm22.0\,\text{cm}^2 when its temperature is 1200 K1200\,\text{K}. The opening is then covered with a thin plate whose emissivity is 0.500.50, but the system must still emit 200 W200\,\text{W} through the same area. Calculate the temperature to which the cavity must now be raised.
