Solution
The correct option is BT1>T3>T2 As we know that from emissive power E∝T4 and from wein's displacement law λmax×T=constant. So if emissivity will be maximum them simultaneously it's temperature will be maximum, but from the wein's law we can say that the particle which has maximum temperature will have lower wavelength.
So, E∝T∝1λ So, we can say: T1>T3>T2 E1>E3>E2 But, λ1<λ3<λ2
