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.
