If a black body radiating at T = 1650K, ...

If a black body radiating at T = 1650K, at what wavelength is the intensity maximum?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

According to Wien.s law `lambda_(m) T = 2.9 xx 10^(-3) ` mK
Substituting the value of the temperature T = 1650K
`lambda_(m) = (2.9 xx 10^(-3))/(1650) = 1.8 mu ` m

What is a black body ?

True statements among the following are (A) Number of wave generated by the electrons in the 5th orbit is five (B) As the temperature increases maximum intensity of radiation emitted by the black body shifts towards lower wavelength side (C) As the intensity of incident radiation increases kinetic energy of photo electrons increases

Three bodies A, B and C have equal surface area and thermal emissivities in the ratio e_(A):e_(B):e_(C)=1:(1)/(2):(1)/(4) . All the three bodies are radiating at same rate. Their wavelengths corresponding to maximum intensity are l_(A),l_(B) and l_(C) respectively and their temperature are T_(A),T_(B) and T_(C) on kelvin scale, then select the incorrect statement.
