Class 11Physics2 Thermal Properties of Matter: Heat TransferSpectral Emissive Power and Wien's Displacement Law
EasySolar radiation emitted by the sun resembles that emitted by a black body at a temperature of $6000 \ K$. Maximum intensity is emitted at a wavelength of about $4800 \ \mathring{A}$. If the sun were to cool down from $6000 \ K$ to $3000 \ K$,then the peak intensity would occur at a wavelength of ....... $\mathring{A}$.
- A$4800$
- B$9600$
- C$7200$
- D$6400$

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ radiate maximum energy with a wavelength difference of $4 \mu m$. The absolute temperature of body $A$ is $3$ times that of body $B$. The wavelength at which body $B$ radiates maximum energy is: (in $\mu m$)
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
