Stefan's Law says:
A) that doubling the star's temperature would also double its peak wavelength.
B) the energy radiated by a blackbody is proportional to T3.
C) that if the Sun's temperature were doubled, it would give off 16X more energy.
D) the hotter a star's surface, the bluer it looks to us.
E) E =mc2.

Answer:

The Sun's temperature were doubled, it would give off 16X more energy.

Explanation:

The Stefan's law gives the relationship between total energy radiated per unit surface area of a black body and the temperature. It is given by :

[tex]j\propto T^4[/tex]

[tex]j=\sigma T^4[/tex]

[tex]\sigma[/tex] is the constant of proportionality called the Stefan–Boltzmann constant

T is temperature

So, the correct statement regarding Stefan's Law is that if the Sun's temperature were doubled, it would give off 16 X more energy. Hence, the correct option is (C).
