NEET2003PhysicsThermal Properties of MatterActual
Shown below are the black body radiation curves at temperatures T₁ and T₂ (T₂>T₁ ) . Which of the following plots is correct?
Correct answer
2
Step-by-step solution
From Wien's displacement law, we know that, _m T= constant which means that as temperature increases then the wavelength having the maximum intensity shifts towards left. Here, T₂>T₁ . _ m_ T₂ _ m_ T₁ and in plot (d) _ m_ T₂ > _ m_ 1 . Therefore the correct plot is (c) where _ m_ T₂ < _ m_ T₁ .
