Concept used:
There is a characteristic wavelength associated with black body at a particular temperature.
Wein's law and Stephan's law are used.
Given:
Temperature of black-body,
T=17+273
T=290 K
a)
Wavelength at which maximum energy is radiated:
Using Wein's law:
λ T = 2.9 × 10 3 λ = 2.9 × 10 3 290 λ = 10 5   m

b)Energy radiated per unit area per unit second by black body:
E = σ T 4 E = 5.67 × 10 8 × 290 4 E = 401.028   W m 2
