Problem

A perfectly black surface is maintained at 500 K500\,\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 power radiated per unit area of the surface. (a) 4.0×103 W m−24.0\times10^{3}\,\text{W m}^{-2} (b) 1.4×104 W m−21.4\times10^{4}\,\text{W m}^{-2} (c) 3.5×103 W m−23.5\times10^{3}\,\text{W m}^{-2} (d) 2.8×103 W m−22.8\times10^{3}\,\text{W m}^{-2}
