A cube-shaped object with a side length of 15 cm has an emissivity of 0.6. The object is heated up to 274 0C and then placed in a room with a surrounding temperature of 11 0CUsing the Stefan-Boltzmann law, calculate the magnitude of the net power emitted by the object through radiation.Give your answer rounded to 4 decimal places without units.

Stefan–Boltzmann law gives the net radiated power: P_net = ε σ A (T^4 - T_env^4).

1) Relevant knowledge points and constants
- Emissivity ε = 0.6.
- Stefan–Boltzmann constant σ = 5.670374419×10^-8 W·m^-2·K^-4.
- Cube side s = 15 cm = 0.15 m → surface area A = 6 s^2 = 6(0.15^2) = 0.135 m^2.
- Temperatures converted to Kelvin: T = 274°C = 274 + 273.15 = 547.15 K; T_env = 11°C = 284.15 K.

2) Step-by-step reasoning and intermediate calculations
- Use the identity a^4 - b^4 = (a - b)(a + b)(a^2 + b^2) to compute the fourth-power difference more accurately.
  - a - b = 547.15 − 284.15 = 263.00
  - a + b = 547.15 + 284.15 = 831.30
  - a^2 = 547.15^2 = 299,373.1225
  - b^2 = 284.15^2 = 80,741.2225
  - a^2 + b^2 = 299,373.1225 + 80,741.2225 = 380,114.345
- Therefore T^4 − T_env^4 = 263.00 × 831.30 × 380,114.345 = 8.310512147×10^10 K^4 (approximately).

3) Complete multiplication with Stefan–Boltzmann law
- First multiply σ by the temperature power difference:
  σ (T^4 − T_env^4) = 5.670374419×10^-8 × 8.310512147×10^10 ≈ 4,712.371387
- Multiply by area and emissivity: ε A = 0.6 × 0.135 = 0.081
- P_net = 0.081 × 4,712.371387 ≈ 381.7020823

4) Why this is correct
- Each step follows directly from the Stefan–Boltzmann law, correct unit conversions, and an algebraic identity used to reduce rounding error in computing large powers; the final arithmetic yields the net radiative power emitted by the cube.

5) Other options
- Not applicable (numerical response). Any other numeric value would result from arithmetic or unit-conversion errors.

6) Conclusion
- Final rounded answer to four decimal places (no units) is 381.7021, which matches the provided correct answer.
