For maximum radiant energy from the moon, the corresponding wavelength is 14 micron. If  Wien's constant is b = 2892 X 10-6 mK, then temperature of the moon is 

a
207 K
b
270 K
c
2070C
d
270 0C

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Given,  λm=14 micron =14μm=14×10−6mand Wien constant,  b=2892×10−6mKAccording to Wien's displacement law,λm=bT  or  T=bλm=2892×10−6mK14×10−6m∴ T=206.6K≈207K
