A black body is at a temperature of . The energy of radiation emitted by the body at wavelength is , at wavelength is and that at is . Wien's constant, . Which of the following is correct?
According to Wien's displacement law, , where is the wavelength corresponding to maximum spectral emissive power, is the absolute temperature, and is Wien's constant. Given: and . . Therefore, the maximum energy is radiated at a wavelength of . Since corresponds to the energy radiated at , it is the maximum among the given energies. Thus, and . Also, a black body emits continuous radiation over all wavelengths, so and . The only correct statement among the options is .
