Solution
The correct option is BTa>Tb>Tc According to Wein's displacement law: λT=b As we can see, the wavelength is inversely proportional to the temperature of the source. In other words, higher the wavelength, lower is the temperature. The order wavelength is : λa<λb<λc The order of temperature would be the exact reverse order: Ta>Tb>Tc Hence option B is correct.
