Thermal radiators have special properties that differentiate them from other radiation sources. Which are correct?

The strength of the heat radiation (intensity) in a thermal radiator depends on the temperature. The maximum intensity of a temperature is achieved in a so-called black body.

 

Since the sun has all colours in the spectrum, it can be described as a coloured body.

 

Red LEDs can replace heat lamps.

 

A grey body behaves like a black body with reduced intensity.


The temperature of a body is doubled. Which statements are true?

The heat radiation of the body increases 16-fold. Assuming the temperature unit is the kelvin.

 

The heat radiation of the body increases 16-fold. The temperature unit does not matter since the unit is disregarded.

 

The total heat output of the body is increased 16-fold.


The image below shows lines that represent the radiation intensity against the wavelength.

The visible light is indicated as a rainbow gradient. Heat radiation occurs in the range of 0,78-50 µm.

Which answers are correct?

 

Epsilon (A) < epsilon (B)

Temperature line (B) > temperature line (A)

Line (B) was would be seen as glowing dark red.

Line (C) and line (B) have the same temperature, but the emission of (C) is reduced by a smaller coefficient.

Line (D) is in the range of heat radiation

Line (D) is a thermal radiator.
