**Problem:**

Light bulb 1 operates with a filament temperature of 2400 K, whereas light bulb 2 has a filament temperature of 1800 K. Both filaments have the same emissivity, and both bulbs radiate the same power. Find the ratio \(A_1/A_2\) of the filament areas of the bulbs.

**Input Fields:**

- **A1/A2 =** [Number input box]
- **Units:** [Dropdown for unit selection]

**Explanation:**

To solve this problem, you can use the Stefan-Boltzmann Law, which relates the power radiated by a black body to its temperature and area. For two light bulbs emitting the same power, the ratio of their areas can be determined using the temperatures given.
