Consider a spherical shell of radius $R$ at temperature $T$. The black body radiation inside it can be considered as an ideal gas of photons with internal energy per unit volume$E=$ $\frac{U}{V} \propto {T^4}$ and pressure $P = \frac{1}{3}\left( {\frac{U}{V}} \right)$ If the shell now undergoes an adiabatic expansion the relation between $T$ and $R$ is
