    The thermal radiation emitted by a body is proportional to Tn where T is its absolute temperature. The value of n is exactly 4 for
    (a) a blackbody
    (b) all bodies
    (c) bodies painted black only
    (d) polished bodies only
    digAnsr:   b
    Ans : (b) all bodies
    From Stefan-Boltzmann law, the energy of the thermal radiation emitted per unit time by a blackbody of surface area A is given by
    `` u=\sigma A{T}^{4}``
    Here, `` \sigma `` is Stefan-Boltzmann constant.
    This law holds true for all the bodies.
