Solar radiation emitted by sun resembles...

Solar radiation emitted by sun resembles that emitted by a body at a temperature of `6000 K` Maximum intensity is emitted at a wavelength of about `4800A^(@)` If the sun was cooled down from `6000K` to `3000K` then the peak intensity would occure at a wavelenght of .

A

`4800Å`

B

`9600Å`

C

`2400Å`

D

`19200Å`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Here , `T_(1)=6000K,lamda_(1)=4800 Å,T_(2)=3000K,lamda_(2)` =?
According to Wien's law ,
` therefore " " (lamda_(2))/(lamda_(1))=(T_(1))/(T_(2))rArrlamda_(2)=(T_(1))/(T_(2))xxlamda_(1)=(6000)/(3000)xx4800=9600Å`
