Three stars $A, B, C$ have surface temperatures $T_{A}, T_{B}, T_{C}$ respectively. Star $A$ appears bluish,star $B$ appears reddish,and star $C$ appears yellowish. Hence,

  • A
    $T_{A} > T_{C} > T_{B}$
  • B
    $T_{A} > T_{B} > T_{C}$
  • C
    $T_{B} > T_{C} > T_{A}$
  • D
    $T_{C} > T_{B} > T_{A}$

Solar 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 ....... $\mathring{A}$.
