    Answer : Option C

    Explanation :

    A pyrometer is a type of remote-sensing thermometer used to measure the temperature of a surface. It is a device that from a distance determines the temperature of a luminous surface from the spectrum of the thermal radiation it emits, a process known as pyrometry.
