Two stars $A$ and $B$ radiate maximum energy at the wavelengths of $360 \ nm$ and $480 \ nm$ respectively. Then the ratio of the surface temperatures of $A$ and $B$ is

On increasing the temperature of a substance gradually, which of the following colours will be noticed by you?

$A$ 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:
