MCQPhysics

CBSE · Class 11 · Physics · Thermal Properties of Matter"Good absorbers of heat are good emitters of heat." This statement is known as:

Step-by-Step Solution

Kirchhoff's Law of thermal radiation states that at a given temperature, the ratio of emissive power to absorptive power for radiation of a given wavelength is constant for all bodies and equal to the emissive power of a black body. Hence, "good absorbers are good emitters." Hence, option A is correct.
