Two bodies $A$ and $B$ have emissivities $0.01$ and $0.81$ respectively. The outer surface areas of both bodies are the same. Both bodies emit total radiant power at the same rate. The wavelength $\lambda_B$ corresponding to the maximum spectral radiance of $B$ is $1.0 \mu m$. If the temperature of $A$ is $5802 \ K$,calculate the wavelength $\lambda_A$ in $\mu m$. (Note: The original question asked for $\lambda_B$ but provided $\lambda_B$ as $1.0 \mu m$ and asked for $\lambda_A$ based on the context of the solution provided).

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $1.5$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $3$
