Question
Show below are the black body radiation curves at temperature T1 and T2 (T2 > T1). Which of the following plots is correct?
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
From Wein′s displacent law, λm T = constant i.e.
at greater temperature λm will be small λm is the wavelength of the radiaton having highest T2 has λm smaller than that for T1 so, (a)is the right answer.
at greater temperature λm will be small λm is the wavelength of the radiaton having highest T2 has λm smaller than that for T1 so, (a)is the right answer.
