$A$ black body radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\lambda$ and its emissive power is $E$. Now,due to a change in the temperature of that body,it radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\frac{2\lambda}{3}$. At that new temperature,the emissive power is:

The wavelength corresponding to the maximum energy emitted by a body at a certain temperature is ${\lambda _0}$. If the temperature of the body is increased such that the new maximum wavelength becomes $\frac{3{\lambda _0}}{4}$, then by what factor does the emissive power increase?
