A diffuse radiation surface has

An object has the shape of cubical box of side $$10cm,$$ with no top cover. The box is placed inside a room whose dimensions are much larger than those of the box. All the five surfaces of box are at a temp of $${500^ \circ }C$$ and have an emissivity of $$0.6.$$ The walls of the room are at $${25^ \circ }C$$ and have an emissivity of $$0.4.$$ All these surfaces can be assumed to be diffuse-gray. Find the net radiative heat loss from the inner surface of the box to the walls of the room.
