If at temperature $T_{1} = 1000K$, the wavelength is $1.4 imes 10^{- 6}m$, then at temperature the wavelength will be $2.8 imes 10^{- 6}m$

Question

If at temperature $T_{1} = 1000K$, the wavelength is $1.4 	imes 10^{- 6}m$, then at temperature the wavelength will be $2.8 	imes 10^{- 6}m$

(b) $\lambda_{m} \propto \frac{1}{T} \Rightarrow \lambda_{m_{1}}T_{1} = \lambda_{m_{2}}T_{2}$
$\Rightarrow T_{2} = \frac{\lambda_{m_{1}}T_{1}}{\lambda_{m_{2}}} = \frac{1.4 	imes 10^{- 6} 	imes 1000}{2.8 	imes 10^{- 6}} = 500\ K$

Q. If at temperature $T_{1} = 1000K$, the wavelength is $1.4 \times 10^{- 6}m$, then at temperature the wavelength will be $2.8 \times 10^{- 6}m$
