A black body at \(200~\text{K}\) is found to emit maximum energy at a wavelength of \(14~\mu \text{m}\). When its temperature is raised to \(1000~\text{K}\), the wavelength at which maximum energy is emitted will be:
| 1. | \(14~\mu\text{m}\) | 2. | \(70~\mu\text{m}\) |
| 3. | \(2.8~\mu\text{m}\) | 4. | \(2.8~\text{nm}\) |
If the temperature of the sun becomes twice its present temperature, then:
| 1. | Radiated energy would be predominantly in the infrared range. |
| 2. | Radiated energy would be primarily in the ultraviolet range. |
| 3. | Radiated energy would be predominantly in the X-ray region |
| 4. | Radiated energy would become twice as strong as it is now. |
The maximum energy in the thermal radiation from a hot source occurs at a wavelength of cm. According to Wein'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 cm. The value n is
(a) 2 (b) 4
(c) (d) 1

A black body has a maximum wavelength at a temperature of \(2000~\text K.\) Its corresponding wavelength at temperatures of \(3000~\text K\) will be:
| 1. | \(\dfrac{3}{2} \lambda_m\) | 2. | \(\dfrac{2}{3} \lambda_m\) |
| 3. | \(\dfrac{4}{9} \lambda_m\) | 4. | \(\dfrac{9}{4} \lambda_m\) |
