The following graph represents the radiant power versus wavelength of a black body. The area under the curve represents:

  • A
    the maximum wavelength emitted by the object.
  • B
    the minimum wavelength emitted by the object.
  • C
    the total energy emitted per unit time by the black body at some particular wavelength.
  • D
    the total energy emitted per unit time per unit area by the black body at all wavelengths.

If a graph is plotted by taking spectral emissive power along $y$-axis and wavelength along $x$-axis,then the area under the graph above the wavelength axis is ...........

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:
