The black discs $x, y$ and $z$ have radii $1 \ m, 2 \ m$ and $3 \ m$ respectively. The wavelengths corresponding to maximum intensity are $200 \ nm, 300 \ nm$ and $400 \ nm$ respectively. The relation between emissive power $E_{x}, E_{y}$ and $E_{z}$ is

  • A
    $E_{x} > E_{y} > E_{z}$
  • B
    $E_{x} < E_{y} < E_{z}$
  • C
    $E_{x} = E_{y} = E_{z}$
  • D
    $E_{y} > E_{x} < E_{z}$
