The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
For a hemispherical body placed on a flat surface the shape factor with respect to itself is 0.50 This represents the ratio of radiation exchange between the body and itself as per the Stefan-Boltzmann law

Three conductors of same length having thermal conductivity \(k_1\), \(k_2\), and \(k_3\) are connected as shown in figure. Area of cross sections of 1st and 2nd conductor are same and for 3rd conductor it is double of the 1st conductor. The temperatures are given in the figure. In steady state condition, the value of θ is ________ °C. (Given: \(k_1\) = 60 Js⁻¹m⁻¹K⁻¹,\(k_2\) = 120 Js⁻¹m⁻¹K⁻¹, \(k_3\) = 135 Js⁻¹m⁻¹K⁻¹)
