Answer and Explanation:

  • Stefan-Boltzmann law. Stefan-Boltzmann law, expresses that the all out brilliant warmth power transmitted from a surface is corresponding to the fourth intensity of its total temperature.
  • The law applies just to black bodies, hypothetical surfaces that assimilate all occurrence heat radiation.
  • From the relationship which is an adjustment to Astronomy, of Stephen's Law:


L = [RT^(2)]^(2)

where

L = Luminosity

R = Radius

T = Temperature

"Bigger" alludes to the radius,

"Bluer" for the temperature scale and

"Brighter" to glow in the articulation.
