Explanation

(b) The wavelength corresponding to maximum emission of radiation from the sun is λmax=4753 A0(close to the wavelength of violet colour of visible region). Hence if temperature is doubled λm is decreased λm1T i.e. mostly ultraviolet radiations emits.

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

(b)  According to Wein’s displacement law

λmT=b or λm=bT=0.00295×104=58×10-9 m=58 nm

The intensity of radiation emitted by the sun has its maximum value at a wavelength of 510 nm and that emitted by the north star has the maximum value at 350 nm. If these stars behave like black bodies, then the ratio of the surface temperature of the sun and north star is
