Transmission Of Heat Question 313

Question: The maximum wavelength of radiations emitted at 900 K is $ 4\mu m $ . What will be the maximum wavelength of radiations emitted at 1200 K

Options:

A) $ 3\mu m $

B) $ 0.3\mu m $

C) $ 1\mu m $

D) $ 1,,m $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

$ \frac{{\lambda _{2}}}{{\lambda _{1}}}=\frac{T _{1}}{T _{2}}\Rightarrow {\lambda _{2}}=\frac{T _{1}}{T _{2}}\times {\lambda _{1}}=\frac{900}{1200}\times 4=3\mu m $
