ANSWER: d. all of the above



2. Assume that two black bodies of areas A1 and A2 are placed as shown in figure. dA1 and dA2 are the small area elements of the black bodies. The distance between them is r and the angles made by the normals of the surfaces with the joining line are Φ1 and Φ2 respectively. What is the formula for net heat exchange (Q12)net between A1and A2?
