      The wavelength corresponding to maximum intensity of radiation emitted by a source at temperature 2000 K is \[\lambda ,\] then what is the wavelength corresponding to maximum intensity of radiation at temperature 3000 K?   [AIPMT 2001]

    A)  \[\frac{2}{3}\lambda \] 

    B)                  \[\frac{16}{81}\lambda \]

    C)  \[\frac{81}{16}\lambda \]

    D)                   \[\frac{4}{3}\lambda \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea: The relation between the wavelength corresponding to maximum intensity of radiation at any temperature is given by Wien’s displacement law.
                Wien’s displacement law is given by
                \[{{\lambda }_{m}}T=\text{cosntant}\]
    or         \[{{\lambda }_{1}}{{T}_{1}}={{\lambda }_{2}}{{T}_{2}}\]
    or         \[{{\lambda }_{2}}={{\lambda }_{1}}\left( \frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}} \right)\]
    Here,     \[{{T}_{1}}=2000\,K,\,{{T}_{2}}=3000\,K,\,{{\lambda }_{1}}=\lambda \]
    \[\therefore \]      \[{{\lambda }_{2}}=\lambda \times \frac{2000}{3000}=\frac{2}{3}\,\lambda \]
