The wavelength of maximum intensity of emission of solar radiation is `lambda_(m) = 4753Å` and from moon it is `14 mm`. The surface temperature of sun and moon are: (Given `b = 2.898 xx 10^(-3) "metre"// "Kelvin")`

A

`6097 K, 207 K`

B

`8097 K, 307 K`

C

`10000 K, 400 K`

D

`3000 K, 100 K`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Wein's equation
`lambda_(m) *T = b`
Which gives , `T_(1) = 8097 K` and `T_(2) = 207K`.
