Solar radiation emitted by the Sun resembles that of a black body at a temperature of $6000 \, K$. The maximum intensity of radiation is emitted at a wavelength of $4800 \, \mathring{A}$. If the temperature of the Sun decreases from $6000 \, K$ to $3000 \, K$,then at what wavelength (in $\mathring{A}$) will the maximum intensity of radiation be emitted?
- A$4800$
- B$9600$
- C$7200$
- D$6400$
