Temperature of the star is determined by

A

Planck's law

B

Wein's displacement law

C

Rayleigh -Jeans law

D

Kirchoff's law

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The surface temperature of the stars is determiened by Wein's displacement law.
According to Wein's displacement law `lamda_(m)T=b`
Where b is Wein's constnat whose value is `2.898xx10^(-3)mK`
