PART - A

1

Answer all questions:

25 marks
a

Write a short note on Stefan’s law.

2 marks

Answer

Stefan-Boltzmann law states that the total energy radiated per unit surface area of a black body per unit time is directly proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature. It is expressed as

M = σT4
where M is the radiant exitance, σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, and T is the temperature in Kelvin.

b

Explain the term atmospheric windows.

3 marks

Answer

Atmospheric windows are specific ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum that can pass through the Earth's atmosphere with minimal absorption or scattering by atmospheric gases like water vapor, carbon dioxide, and ozone. These regions are critical for remote sensing as they allow sensors to detect radiation reflected or emitted from the Earth's surface.
