  • A
    $\frac{3}{2} \lambda_{m}$
  • B
    $\frac{16}{81} \lambda_{m}$
  • C
    $\frac{81}{16} \lambda_{m}$
  • D

According to Wien's displacement law:

If $\lambda$ denotes the wavelength at which the radiative emission from a black body at a temperature $T$ is maximum,then

Black bodies $A$ and $B$ radiate maximum energy with wavelength difference $4 \mu m$. The absolute temperature of body $A$ is $3$ times that of $B$. The wavelength at which body $B$ radiates maximum energy is (in $\mu m$)

Solar radiation emitted by the sun resembles that emitted by a black body at a temperature of $6000 \ K$. Maximum intensity is emitted at a wavelength of about $4800 \ \mathring{A}$. If the sun were to cool down from $6000 \ K$ to $3000 \ K$,then the peak intensity would occur at a wavelength of ....... $\mathring{A}$.

The wavelength of maximum intensity of radiation emitted by a star is $289.8 \, nm$. The radiation intensity of the star is (Stefan's constant $\sigma = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \, W m^{-2} K^{-4}$, Wien's constant $b = 2898 \, \mu m K$).
