The wavelength of maximum energy released during an atomic explosion was $2.93 \times 10^{-10} \ m$. Given that Wien's constant is $b = 2.93 \times 10^{-3} \ m \cdot K$,the maximum temperature attained must be of the order of:

  • A
    $10^{-7} \ K$
  • B
    $10^7 \ K$
  • C
    $10^{-13} \ K$
  • D
    $5.86 \times 10^7 \ K$

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

Two spherical bodies $A$ (radius $6 \,cm$) and $B$ (radius $18 \,cm$) are at temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$,respectively. The maximum intensity in the emission spectrum of $A$ is at $500 \,nm$ and in that of $B$ is at $1500 \,nm$. Considering them to be black bodies,what will be the ratio of the rate of total energy radiated by $A$ to that of $B$?
