The correct Answer is:
To determine the wavelength at which a hot body radiates maximum energy, we can use Wien's Displacement Law, which states: \[ \lambda_{m} = \frac{b}{T} \] where: - \(\lambda_{m}\) is the wavelength at which maximum energy is radiated, - \(b\) is Wien's constant (given as \(2.9 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m K}\)), - \(T\) is the absolute temperature in Kelvin. ### Step 1: Convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin The surface temperature of the hot body is given as \(1127^{\circ}C\). To convert this to Kelvin, we use the formula: \[ T(K) = T(°C) + 273 \] Substituting the given temperature: \[ T = 1127 + 273 = 1400 \, K \] ### Step 2: Use Wien's Displacement Law to find the wavelength Now that we have the temperature in Kelvin, we can substitute \(T\) and \(b\) into the formula for \(\lambda_{m}\): \[ \lambda_{m} = \frac{b}{T} = \frac{2.9 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m K}}{1400 \, K} \] ### Step 3: Calculate \(\lambda_{m}\) Perform the calculation: \[ \lambda_{m} = \frac{2.9 \times 10^{-3}}{1400} = 2.07142857 \times 10^{-6} \, m \] To express this in Angstroms (1 Angstrom = \(10^{-10}\) m): \[ \lambda_{m} = 2.07142857 \times 10^{-6} \, m \times \frac{10^{10} \, \text{Å}}{1 \, m} = 207.142857 \, \text{Å} \] ### Final Result Thus, the wavelength at which the hot body radiates maximum energy is approximately: \[ \lambda_{m} \approx 207.1 \, \text{Å} \] ---
