Physics Question on Electromagnetic Spectrum

The part of the electromagnetic spectrum to which 2.7 K belongs is

A

radio

B

microwave

C

X-ray

D

y-rays

Answer

microwave

Explanation

Solution

Using the relation λmT=0.29cmK\lambda_m\,T=0.29 cm K ( Wien's displacement law)λm=0.29T=0.292.7=0.11cm\lambda_m=\frac{0.29}{T}=\frac{0.29}{2.7}=0.11 cm Part of the e.m. spectrum for this wavelength is 'microwave'.
