The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the relationship between the wavelength of maximum intensity (denoted as \(\lambda_m\)) and temperature (T) as described by Wien's Displacement Law, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understanding Wien's Displacement Law**: Wien's Displacement Law states that the wavelength of maximum intensity (\(\lambda_m\)) of radiation emitted by a black body is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature (T) of the black body. Mathematically, this can be expressed as: \[ \lambda_m \propto \frac{1}{T} \] 2. **Expressing the Proportionality**: From the proportionality, we can write: \[ \lambda_m = \frac{b}{T} \] where \(b\) is a constant known as Wien's displacement constant. 3. **Rearranging the Equation**: Rearranging the equation gives us: \[ \lambda_m \cdot T = b \] This shows that the product of the wavelength of maximum intensity and the absolute temperature is constant. 4. **Identifying the Relationship**: From the equation \(\lambda_m \propto \frac{1}{T}\), we can also express this in terms of powers: \[ \lambda_m \propto T^{-1} \] This indicates that as the temperature increases, the wavelength of maximum intensity decreases. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, we conclude that the wavelength of maximum intensity (\(\lambda_m\)) is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature (T). This confirms that \(\lambda_m\) is independent of T in terms of direct proportionality, but rather it is inversely related. ### Final Answer: According to Wien's Displacement Law, \(\lambda_m \propto T^{-1}\).
