The spectral energy distribution of the ...

The spectral energy distribution of the sun has a maximum at `4754Å`. If the temperature of the sun is 6050 K, what is the temperature of a star for which this maximum is at `9506Å`?

Text Solution

To solve the problem, we will use Wien's Displacement Law, which states that the product of the maximum wavelength (\( \lambda_{max} \)) and the temperature (T) of a black body is a constant. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \lambda_{max} \cdot T = b \] where \( b \) is Wien's displacement constant. ...
