The human eye is most sensitive to 560-nm (green) light. What is the temperature of a black body that would radiates most intensely at this wavelength

Respuesta :

Given that,

Wavelength of the human light is 560 nm

To find,

The temperature of a black body that would radiates most intensely at this wavelength.

Solution,

The relation between temperature and the wavelength is given by :

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{c}{T}[/tex]

T is temperature

c is [tex]2.898\times 10^{-3}\ m-K[/tex]

So,

[tex]T=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\T=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{560\times 10^{-9}}\\\\T=5175\ K[/tex]

So, the temperature of a black body that would radiates most intensely at this wavelength is 5175 K.
