Problem 1.1
Solution (cont.)Now, to find the wavelength max for which T() reaches a maximum, we equalthe derivative of the function to 0:

Now taking x = hc/kT, we need to solve the equationxex

This can only be solved numerically, with the result x = 4,965114. Then, finally:

Problem 1.2
QuestionA cavity at 6000K has an energy distribution corresponding to a blackbody. We make asmall hole in it with 1mm diameter. Calculate the power irradiated through the hole in thewavelength interval between 5500 and 5510 A, as well as the total power
Solution
As the wavelength interval is rather small, we can approximate the total backbody radiancywithin that interval as:
RT =
ZBA
c

8hc

ehc/kT 1

with = B A and M = (B + A)/2
Then, the total power will be the radiancy times the area of the hole:

Problem 1.3
Solution (cont.)
For the total power, we use Stefans law:
RT = T4 = 5,6704 108 Js1m2K4 (6000K)4 = 7,3488 107 W/m2
P = RT A = 7,3488 107W/m2 (3,1416 106m2) = 230,87W

Problem 1.3
Solution (cont.)
For the total power, we use Stefans law:
RT = T4 = 5,6704 108 Js1m2K4 (6000K)4 = 7,3488 107 W/m2
P = RT A = 7,3488 107W/m2 (3,1416 106m2) = 230,87W
QuestionIn a thermonuclear explosion the temperature in the fireball is momentarily 107K. Find thewavelength at which the radiation emitted is a maximum.
SolutionWe apply Wiens law, obtaining:
max =2,897 103m K
107K= 2,897 1010m = 2,897 A
which represent rather energetic X-rays.
