In an electric furnace used for refining steel, the temperature is monitored by measuring the radiant power emitted through a small hole in the wall of the furnace, of area 0.5 cm2. This hole acts like a perfect blackbody radiator having the same temperature as the interior of the furnace. If the temperature of the furnace (and therefore of the hole)is to be maintained at 1650°C, how much power will the hole radiate?

A)20 W
B)30 W
C)40 W
D)50 W
