qThe single factor that determine how much energy is emitted by a blackbody is its
temperature.
qThe intensity of energy radiated by a blackbody increases according to the fourth power of
its absolute temperature.
qThis relationship is called the Stefan-Boltzmann Law.
E = radiation emitted in W/m2
s= 5.67 x 10-8 W/m2 * K *sec
T = temperate (K ß Kevin
degree)
