The temperature of the sun is $5500 \ K$ and it emits maximum intensity radiation in the yellow region $(5.5 \times 10^{-7} \ m)$. The maximum radiation from a furnace occurs at a wavelength of $11 \times 10^{-7} \ m$. The temperature of the furnace is ....... $K$.

In determining the temperature of a distant star,one makes use of

How is the temperature of stars determined?

On observing light from three different stars $P, Q$ and $R$, it was found that the intensity of violet colour is maximum in the spectrum of $P$, the intensity of green colour is maximum in the spectrum of $R$, and the intensity of red colour is maximum in the spectrum of $Q$. If $T_P, T_Q$ and $T_R$ are the respective absolute temperatures of $P, Q$ and $R$, then it can be concluded from the above observations that:

The maximum energy in the thermal radiation from a hot source occurs at a wavelength of $11 \times 10^{-5} \ cm$. According to Wien's law, the temperature of the source (on Kelvin scale) will be $n$ times the temperature of another source (on Kelvin scale) for which the wavelength at maximum energy is $5.5 \times 10^{-5} \ cm$. The value of $n$ is

If $\lambda_{m}$ denotes the wavelength at which the radioactive emission from a black body at a temperature $T \; K$ is maximum,then
