Solution

The relationship between temperature and infrared radiation is directly proportional. This means that as the temperature of an object increases, the amount of infrared radiation it emits also increases. This is due to the fact that higher temperatures excite the atoms and molecules of the object, causing them to vibrate and move more rapidly. This increased movement and vibration result in the release of energy in the form of infrared radiation. Therefore, the statement "As the temperature increases, the infrared radiation emitted increases" is correct. The other two statements are incorrect.
