Q. The wavelength at which the peak of intensity of blackbody radiation occurs
✅ Correct Answer: (B)
Decreases with increase in temperature
Explanation: According to Wien’s displacement law, when the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the overall radiated energy increases. Wavelength of maximum emission from a blackbody is inversely proportional to its temperature. Shorter-wavelength (higher-frequency) light corresponds to higher-energy photons.
