A black body has maximum wavelength ` lambda _m ` at 2000 K. Its corresponding wavelength at 3000 K will be :

A

` (3)/( 2 ) lambda_m`

B

` (2)/(3) lambda _ m `

C

` (16)/(81) lambda_m `

D

` (4)/(3) lambda_m `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

` " " (lambda _1)/(lambda _2) = (T_2)/(T_1) `
` " " (lambda _m)/(lambda _2) =(3000)/(2000) `
` rArr " " lambda _2= (2)/(3) lambda_m `
