The spectral emissive power $E_\lambda$ for a body at temperature $T_1$ is plotted against the wavelength and the area under the curve is found to be $A$. At a different temperature $T_2$,the area is found to be $9A$. Then $\lambda_1/\lambda_2 =$

  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $1/3$
  • C
    $1/\sqrt{3}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{3}$

$A$ black body at $200 K$ is found to emit maximum energy at a wavelength of $14 \mu m$. When its temperature is raised to $1000 K$,the wavelength at which maximum energy is emitted is:

$A$ black body is at a temperature of $5780 \text{ K}$. The energy of radiation emitted by the body at wavelength $300 \text{ nm}$ is $U_1$, at wavelength $500 \text{ nm}$ is $U_2$, and at wavelength $900 \text{ nm}$ is $U_3$. Wien's constant $b = 2.89 \times 10^6 \text{ nm K}$. This shows that:

$A$ particular star (assuming it as a black body) has a surface temperature of about $5 \times 10^4 \ K$. The wavelength in nanometers at which its radiation becomes maximum is $(b = 0.0029 \ mK)$.

$A$ black body has a maximum wavelength of $\lambda_m$ at a temperature of $2000 \ K$. What will be the maximum wavelength at a temperature of $3000 \ K$?

Solar radiation emitted by the Sun resembles that of a black body at a temperature of $6000 \, K$. The maximum intensity of radiation is emitted at a wavelength of $4800 \, \mathring{A}$. If the temperature of the Sun decreases from $6000 \, K$ to $3000 \, K$,then at what wavelength (in $\mathring{A}$) will the maximum intensity of radiation be emitted?
