    Maximum wavelength of emitted radiation is \[4\mu m\] at 2000 K. Then, maximum wavelength at 2400 K is

    A)  \[3.33\mu m\]                                 

    B)  \[0.66\mu m\]

    C)  \[1\mu m\]                                       

    D)  \[1m\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    For emitted radiation, according to Wein's  displacement law \[{{\lambda }_{m}}\propto \frac{1}{T}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{\lambda }_{m}}T\]= constant                 \[{{\lambda }_{1}}{{T}_{1}}={{\lambda }_{2}}{{T}_{2}}\]                 Given,  \[{{\lambda }_{1}}=4\mu m,\]   \[{{T}_{1}}=2000K\] and          \[{{T}_{2}}=2400K\] \[\therefore \]  \[4\times 2000={{\lambda }_{2}}\times 2400\]                 \[{{\lambda }_{2}}=\frac{20}{6}=3.33\mu m\]
