On investigation of light from three different stars $A, B$ and $C$, it was found that in the spectrum of $A$ the intensity of red colour is maximum, in $B$ the intensity of blue colour is maximum and in $C$ the intensity of yellow colour is maximum. From these observations, it can be concluded that

  • A
    The temperature of $A$ is maximum, $B$ is minimum and $C$ is intermediate
  • B
    The temperature of $A$ is maximum, $C$ is minimum and $B$ is intermediate
  • C
    The temperature of $B$ is maximum, $A$ is minimum and $C$ is intermediate
  • D
    The temperature of $C$ is maximum, $B$ is minimum and $A$ is intermediate

$A$ black body radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\lambda$ and its emissive power is $E$. Now,due to a change in the temperature of that body,it radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\frac{2 \lambda}{3}$. At that temperature,the emissive power is:

$A$ black body emits radiation of maximum intensity at wavelength $\lambda$ at temperature $T \ K$. Its corresponding wavelength at temperature $1.5 \ T \ K$ will be
