IMPORTANT

Assertion: Absorptive power is a dimensionless quantity and a body having low emissive power should have low absorptive power.

Reason: The ratio of emissive power to absorptive power is same for all bodies at a given temperature and is equal to the emissive power of a black body at that temperature.

Assertion: A body that is a good radiator is also a good absorber of radiation at a given wavelength.

Reason: According to Kirchhoff's law the absorptivity of a body is equal to its emissivity at a given wavelength.

If the shell now undergoes an adiabatic expansion the relation between T and R. Consider a spherical shell of radius R at temperature T. The black body radiation insider it can be considered as an ideal gas of photons with internal energy per unit volume u=UVT4 and pressure p=13UV.
