The hottest ordinary star in our galaxy has a surface temperature of 53,000 K. Part A What is the peak wavelength of its thermal radiation

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\lambda=5.46\times 10^{-8}\ m[/tex]

Explanation:

The hottest ordinary star in our galaxy has a surface temperature of 53,000 K.

We need to find the peak wavelength of its thermal radiation.

Using Wein's law,

[tex]\lambda T=2.898\times 10^{-3}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{53000}\\\\=5.46\times 10^{-8}\ m[/tex]

So, the peak wavelength of its thermal radiation is equal to [tex]5.46\times 10^{-8}\ m[/tex].
