An electric bulb with tungsten filament having an area 0.3 cm2 is raised to a temperature of 2727°C, when a current passes through it. Calculate the electric power being consumed n watt if the emissivity of the filament is 0.35. stefan's constant,σ = 5.67 x 10-5 erg cm-1 s-1 K-4. Given 1ω = 107 ergs s-1. |

Answer» Area, A = 0.3 cm2 = 0.3 x 10-4 m2 Temperature, T = (2727 + 273) K = 3000 K σ = 5.67 x 10-5 erg cm-2 s-1 K-4 = 5.67 x 10-8 Jm-2 s-1 K-4. Power consume = Area = σT4 = 0.3 x 10-4 x 0.35 x 5.67 x 10-8 x (3000)4 Js-1 or W. = 48.22 W. |
