===== Two Interacting Black Body Objects: Instructor's Guide =====

==== Main Ideas ====
  * Electromagnetic radiation
  * First and second law of thermodynamics
  * Transfer of heat
  * Black body objects

==== Students' Task ====
//Estimated Time: 30 minutes//

  * Students are placed in small groups and asked to describe the interaction between two black body objects of different temperatures in a vacuum.
  * The small groups must also determine how the interaction will change if one black body object is replaced with one that reflects one-third of the incident light.


==== Prerequisite Knowledge ====
  * Familiarity with the first and second thermodynamic laws
  * Basic understanding of electromagnetic radiation and its properties
  * Basic understanding of black body thermodynamics is useful
