Question

The maximum energy in the thermal radiation hot a hot source occurs at a wavelength of $$11$$ x $$10-5$$ cm. According to Wien s law, the temperature of the  source [on Kelvin $$scale)$$ will be n times the temperature of another source (on$$ Kelvin's $$scale) for which the wavelength at maximum energy is $$5.5$$ x $$10-5$$ cm. The value of n is
