A given black body at a temperature of 300 K emits 100 W of EM radiation. If its temperature increases to 3,000 K, how much EM radiation would it emit?
(A) 1,000 W
(B) 10,000 W
(C) 100,000 W
(D) 1,000,000 W
(E) 10,000,000 W

A physics professor in thermodynamics once told us that a valid exam question would be:
> The grass is green, estimate the surface temperature of the sun.

To be honest, Physics has been a really long time ago and sometimes I want to go back to it, but it's now already too far into my memory to have active knowledge on.

Dang, ehere's the stuff on Gibson free energy, canonical ensembles and stuff.

Thermodynamics and statistical mechanics is neat stuff.

Ooh and stuff anout the Wick rotation makes physics all the more interesting.

I don't know physics, so I'm just gonna apply math and assume it's a direct ratio: (A) 1,000 W.

Do your own homework

Good guess, but this is actually one of the rare examples of a fourth-power law: emitted energy is proportional to the 4th power of temperature.

Right!

How about a 3000K blackbody radiator?

What the hell am I gonna do with a black body radiator?

Some people would pay big bucks for a million watts of power!
