Two spheres of the same material have radii $1 \mathrm{~m}$ and $4 \mathrm{~m}$ and temperatures $4000 \mathrm{~K}$ and $2000 \mathrm{~K}$ respectively. The energy radiated per second by the first sphere is: (a) 16 times greater than second sphere. (b) 64 times greater than second sphere. (c) 256 times greater than second sphere. (d) Will be same as in case of second sphere.

A blackbody emission spectrum of object A peaks in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum at a wavelength of 200 x 10^-9 m. That of object B peaks in the red region, at 600 x 10^-9 m. According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is A than B? 3 times hotter 400 times hotter 800 times hotter 8 times hotter 1/3 as hot
