Question

Physics Question on thermal properties of matter

As temperature of a black body is raised, wavelength corresponding to maximum energy reduces. Higher temperature would mean higher energy and hence higher wavelength.

A

Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

Assertion is true but reason is false

D

Both assertion and reason are false

Answer

Assertion is true but reason is false

Explanation

Solution

According to Wien's displacement law,
λm?1T\, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \lambda_m ? \frac{1}{T}
Hence, assertion is true but reason is false.
