Flash light equipped with a new set of batteries, produces bright white light. As the batteries wear out

A

The light intensity gets reduced with no change in its colour

B

Light colour changes first to yellow and then red with no change in intensity

C

It stops working suddenly while giving white light

D

Colour changes to red and also intensity gets reduced

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

As battery wears out, temperature of filament attains lesser value.
Hence, intensity of radiation reduces also dominating wavelength (`lambda_m`) in spectrum increases.
