Read the passage and Answer the following question: In, vacuum the velocity of light radiation with different wavelength is the same. But in a material medium, the velocity of different colour radiations is not the same and they travel with different paths. Due to this, the refractive index of the medium is different for different colours. If white beam of light is incident on a glass prism, the angle of refraction for different colours is different. When Sunlight is incident on a refracting surface, then it gets split into seven coloured spectrum and emerges out. The splitting of light into its component colours is called dispersion. Sir Isaac Newton was the first to use a glass prism to obtain the spectrum of Sunlight. A glass prism is transparent medium bounded by two plane surfaces inclined at an angle. When white light is dispersed into seven colours by a prism, different colours of light bend through different angles with respect to incident ray. Out of these seven colours, red light bends the least, while violet light bends the most. So, the rays of each colour emerge along different paths and becomes distinct. Hence, we get spectrum of seven - different colours. Q. Which light deviates the least and which one deviates the most ?

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 the maximum in the spectrum of R and the intensity or red colour is maximum in the spectrum of Q. if T_P, T_Qand T_R are the respectively absolute temperatures of P,Q and R , then it can be concluded from the above observation that:
