Concept explainers

Wien's displacement law

Students often get confused between Wien's displacement law and Planck's radiation law. Although both are historically related, yet they are conceptually different. Planck's law helps determine the spectrum of a blackbody, while Wien's law determines the relationship between peak wavelength and temperature.

Question

Daylight and incandescent light may be approximated
as a blackbody at the effective surface temperatures of
5800 K and 2800 K, respectively. Determine the wavelength
at maximum emission of radiation for each of the lighting
sources.
