On observing light from three different stars `P`, `Q` and `R`, it was found that intensity of violet colour is maximum in the spectrum of `P`, the intensity of green colour is maximum in the spectrum of `R` and the intensity of red colour is maximum in the spectrum of `Q`. if `T_(P)`, `T_(Q)` and `T_(R)` are respective absolute temperature of `P`, `Q` and `R`. then it can be concluded from the above observation that

A

`T_(p) gt T_(R) gt T_(Q)`

B

`T_(P) lt T_(R) lt T_(Q)`

C

`T_(P) lt T_(Q) lt T_(R)`

D

`T_(P) lt T_(Q) gt T_(R)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

From Wien's displacement law `lambda_(m) prop 1/T`
Given `(lambda_(m))Plt(lambda_(m))Rlt(lambda_(m))Q`
so `T_(P)gtT_(R)gtT_(Q)`
