Thermal Radiation System
Data and Calculations
①
Calculate R, the resistance of the filament at each of the voltage settings used (R = V/I).
Enter your results in Table 3.1.
②
Use the procedure on pages 3 and 4 of this manual to determine T, the temperature of the
lamp filament at each voltage setting. Enter your results in the table.
③
*Calculate T
4
for each value of T and enter your results in the table.
④
*On a separate sheet of paper, construct a graph of Rad versus T
4
. Use Rad as your dependent
variable (y-axis).
*In place of calculations
①
and , some may prefer to perform a power regression on Rad
versus T to determine their relationship, or graph on log-log paper and find the slope.
Questions
①
What is the relationship between Rad and T? Does this relationship hold over the entire
range of measurements?
②
The Stefan-Boltzmann Law is perfectly true only for ideal, black body radiation. A black body is
any object that absorbs all the radiation that strikes it. Is the filament of the lamp a true black
body?
③
What sources of thermal radiation, other than the lamp filament, might have influenced your
measurements? What affect would you expect these sources to have on your results?
