In a certain planetary system,it is observed that one of the celestial bodies having a surface temperature of $200 \; K$,emits radiation of maximum intensity near the wavelength $12 \; \mu m$. The surface temperature (in $K$) of a nearby star which emits light of maximum intensity at a wavelength $\lambda = 4800 \; \mathring A$ is

The wavelength of radiation emitted from a body depends on .......

The maximum energy in the thermal radiation from a hot source occurs at a wavelength of $11 \times 10^{-5} \ cm$. According to Wien's law, the temperature of the source (on Kelvin scale) will be $n$ times the temperature of another source (on Kelvin scale) for which the wavelength at maximum energy is $5.5 \times 10^{-5} \ cm$. The value of $n$ is

Three stars $A, B, C$ have surface temperatures $T_{A}, T_{B}, T_{C}$ respectively. Star $A$ appears bluish,star $B$ appears reddish,and star $C$ appears yellowish. Hence,

The intensity of radiation emitted by the sun has its maximum value at a wavelength of $510\;nm$ and that emitted by the north star has the maximum value at $350\;nm$. If these stars behave like black bodies,then the ratio of the surface temperature of the sun and north star is
