If there are two bodies at different temperatures, the wavelength of radiation (in which maximum radiation energy is distributed):

a
will be greater for the body at higher temperature
b
will be greater for the body at lower temperature
c
has no relation with temperature, so will be same for both the bodies
d
none of the above

detailed solution

Correct option is B

According to wein's   displacement law  λT = CONSTANTλα1TBUT EαT4 AT EVERY TEMPERATURE AT ALL THE WAVE LENGTHS HEAT ENERGY WILL BE EMITTED.As the temperature increases the wavelength corresponding to maximum energy emitted will be shifted towards shorter wavelength range.
