Solution
The correct option is A increased Wien's displacement law states that the black body radiation for different temperatures peaks at a wavelength inversely proportional to the temperature. In other words λm×T=b as frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength if the temperature of luminous body is increased then the frequency corresponding to maximum energy of radiation also increase. option (A) is the correct answer.
