Which one of the following statements concerning the stefan-boltzmann equation is correct? the equation can be used to calculate the power absorbed by any surface. the equation applies only to perfect radiators. the equation applies only to perfect absorbers. the equation is valid with any temperature units. the equation describes the transport of thermal energy by conduction.

"The equation can be used to calculate the power absorbed by any surface" statement concerning the Stefan-Boltzmann equation is correct.

Option A

Explanation:

According to Stefan Boltzmann equation, the power radiated by black body radiation source is directly proportionate to the fourth power of temperature of the source. So the radiation transferred is absorbed by another surface and that absorbed power will also be equal to the fourth power of the temperature. So the equation describes the relation of net radiation loss with the change in temperature from hotter temperature to cooler temperature surface.  

So this law is application for calculating power absorbed by any surface.
