The correct answer is:
Given, maximum wavelength,
Stefan’s constant,
Wien’s constant, b = 2898 = 2898
According to Wien’s displacement law, the maximum wavelength is given by
…. (i)
Substituting given values in Eq. (i), we get
…. (ii)
According to Stefan’s law the energy radiated from a source is given by
…. (iii)
Where, A = area of source
e = emissivity (value between 0 to 1)
The intensity of radiations emitted is equal to energy radiated from a given surface area, i.e.,
[From Eq.(iii)]
As e is very small , so
Substituting the value of T from Eq.(ii) in Eq.(iv), we get
