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 11×10-5 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 5.5×10-5 cm. The value n is 
(a) 2                     (b) 4
(c) 12                    (d) 1
