A. Wien's law
B. Stefan's law
C. Kirchhoff's law
D. Planck's law
Answer: Option C
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Kirchhoff's law states that the emissivity and the absorptivity of a surface at a given temperature and wavelength are equal.The ratio of the emissive power and absorptive power of all bodies is the same and is equal to the emissive power of a perfectly black body. This statement is known as Kirchhoff's law
