The temperature of sun is 5500 K and it emits maximum intensity radiation in the yellow region`(5.5 xx10^(-7)m)`. The maximum radiation from a furnace occurs at wavelength `11 xx 10^(-7)m` The temperature of furnace is

A

1125 K

B

2750 K

C

5500 K

D

11000 K

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`lambdam_1 T =lambdam_2 T_2 rArr 5.5 xx 10^(-7) xx 5500 = 11 xx 10^(-7)` T
T = 550 × 5 K = 2750 K
