A black body at emits radiations with maximum intensity at a wavelength of . If the temperature of the body is increased by , the maximum intensity will be observed at:
According to Wien's displacement law, the product of the wavelength corresponding to maximum intensity () and the absolute temperature () is constant: . Given initial temperature, . Initial wavelength, . The temperature is increased by , so the new absolute temperature is . Using the relation : .
