On observing light from three different stars $P, Q$ and $R$, it was found that the intensity of violet colour is maximum in the spectrum of $P$, the intensity of green colour is maximum in the spectrum of $R$, and the intensity of red colour is maximum in the spectrum of $Q$. If $T_P, T_Q$ and $T_R$ are the respective absolute temperatures of $P, Q$ and $R$, then it can be concluded from the above observations that:

$A$ black body has a maximum wavelength $\lambda_{m}$ at a temperature of $2000 \ K$. Its corresponding wavelength at a temperature of $3000 \ K$ will be:

$A$ black body emits radiation with maximum intensity at a wavelength of $5000 \mathring{A}$ at a temperature of $1227^\circ C$. If its temperature is increased by $1000^\circ C$, the new wavelength of maximum intensity will be ...... $\mathring{A}$.
