Question

The tungsten filament of an electric lamp has a surface area A and a power rating P. if the emissivity of the filament is  is Stefan’s constant, the steady temperature of the filament will be

Solution

Correct option is

 

The energy radiated per second per unit area at temperature T is given

                        

Thus, the energy radiated per second (or power radiated) from the filament of area A is

                   

or
