Question

A black body is at rest at a temperature of 2880 K. The energy of radiation emitted by this object with wavelength between 499 n-m and 500 n-m is U1, between 999 and 1000 nm is U2 and between 1499 nm and 1500 nm is U3. The Wien's constant b=2.88×106 nm-K. Then

Solution

The correct option is D U2>U1
Given, Temperature of black body (T)=2880 K
From Wien's law
λmax=2.88×1062880=1000 nm


Energy distribution with wavelength is as shown in the figure.
From the figure it is clear that U2 is corresponding to λmax(approx)
U2>U1
