The wavelength of maximum energy released during an atomic explosion was $2.93 \times 10^{-10} \ m$. Given that Wien's constant is $b = 2.93 \times 10^{-3} \ m \cdot K$,the maximum temperature attained must be of the order of:

  • A
    $10^{-7} \ K$
  • B
    $10^7 \ K$
  • C
    $10^{-13} \ K$
  • D
    $5.86 \times 10^7 \ K$
