Question
The total radiant energy per unit area, normal to the direction of incidence, received at a distance R from the the centre of a star of radius r, whose outer surface radiated as a black body at a temperature T K is given by
(where σ is Stefan′s constant)
(where σ is Stefan′s constant)
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
According to the Stefan′s Boltzmann law, the power radiated by the star whose outer surface radiated as a black body at temperature T K is given by
P = σ4πr2T4
where,
r = radius of the star
σ= Stefan’s constant
The radiant power per unit area recived at distance R from the centre of star is

P = σ4πr2T4
where,
r = radius of the star
σ= Stefan’s constant
The radiant power per unit area recived at distance R from the centre of star is
