A black body has maximum wavelength `lambda_(m)` at temperature `2000 K`. Its corresponding wavelength at temperature 3000 will be

A

`(3)/(2) lambda_(m)`

B

`(2)/(3) lambda_(m)`

C

`(4)/(9) lambda_(m)`

D

`(9)/(4) lambda_(m)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

(2) `lambda_(m) T_(1) = lambda'_(m) T_(2)`
`510 T_(1) = 350 T_(2)`
`(T_(1))/(T_(2)) = (350)/(510) = 0.69`
