Question

Solar radiation emitted by sun resembles that emitted by a black body at a temperature of 6000 K. Maximum intensity in emitted at a wavelength of about 4800Å. If the sun were cooled down from 6000 K to 3000 K, then the peak intensity would occur at a wavelength of

  1. 4800 Å    
  2. 9600 Å    
  3. 2400 Å    
  4. 19200 Å    

The correct answer is: 9600 Å


    Here, T subscript 1 end subscript equals 6000 blank K comma blank lambda subscript 1 end subscript equals 4800 blank Å
    T subscript 2 end subscript equals 3000 blank K comma blank lambda subscript 2 end subscript equals blank ?
    According to Wien’s law
    therefore blank fraction numerator lambda subscript 2 end subscript over denominator lambda subscript 1 end subscript end fraction equals fraction numerator T subscript 1 end subscript over denominator T subscript 2 end subscript end fraction
    lambda subscript 2 end subscript equals fraction numerator T subscript 1 end subscript over denominator T subscript 2 end subscript end fraction blank cross times blank lambda subscript 1 end subscript equals fraction numerator 6000 over denominator 3000 end fraction cross times 4800 equals 9600 Å
