The correct answer is option 1.

Explanation:

An ideal black body is defined as a physical body that absorbs all the radiant energies of falling on it and no energy is reflected back.

All the radiations coming in electromagnetic waves series are absorbed by the ideal black body due to which its surface appears black.

This concept of absorbing of energy is used to study radiation phenomena.
