Question

On observing light from three different stars P, Q and R, it was found that intensity of violet colour is maximum in the spectrum of P, the intensity of green colour is maximum in the spectrum of R and the intensity of red colour is maximum in the spectrum of Q. If TP,TQ and TR are the respective absolute temperature of P, Q and R, then it can be concluded from the above observations that

Solution

The correct option is B TP>TR>TQ
from wein displacement law
λmT=b
λmα1T
The wavelength of red is maximum hence, temperature of Q TQ will be least , and wavelength of violet is minimum and the temperature of P TP will be highest, and temperature of green TR light will lie between P and Q
TP>TR>TQ
