Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): For small difference in absolute temperature, compared with the temperature itself, the net rate of transfer of energy from a body to its surrounding by radiation is directly proportional to the temperature difference.
Reason (R): The net ratio of transfer of energy by radiation from a body (temperature \(T_b=T_S+\theta\)) to its surrounding (temperature \(T_S\)) is given by:
\(\dfrac{dQ}{dt}=eA\sigma(T_b^4-T_S^4)\\ ~~~~~~~=eA\sigma\left\{(T_S+\theta)^4-T_S^4\right\}\\ ~~~~~~~\approx4eA\sigma T^3_S\theta,~\text{where }\theta\ll T_S.\)
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.

If the absolute temperature of a star doubles but its radius halves, then the rate of radiation from the star:
1. increases \(4\) times
2. increases \(2\) times
3. remains unchanged
4. decreases \(2\) times

A steel rod, insulated at its sides, is inserted into a high temperature oven – as shown in the figure. The end of the rod is blackened and is observed to be at a temperature \(T_b,\) and the temperature of the surroundings is \(T_S.\) The conductivity of steel is \(K,\) and Stefan's constant is \(\sigma.\) The temperature of the oven is (all temperatures are on absolute scale):
1. \(T_S+\dfrac{L\sigma}{K}T_b^4\) 2. \(T_b+\dfrac{L\sigma}{K}(T_b-T_S)^4\)
3. \(T_b+\dfrac{L\sigma}{K}(T_b^4-T_S^4)\) 4. \(\left\{T_b^4+\dfrac{L\sigma}{K}(T_b^4-T_S^4)\right\}^{1/4}\)
