Problem

A blackbody at

T = 600\,\text{K}

has its wavelength of maximum emission measured as

\lambda_{\max} = 4.80\,\mu\text{m}

. What is the approximate value of the product

\lambda_{\max}T

obtained from this reading? (a)

4.8\times10^{-3}\,\text{m\,K}

(b)

2.9\times10^{-3}\,\text{m\,K}

(c)

1.6\times10^{-3}\,\text{m\,K}

(d)

3.5\times10^{-3}\,\text{m\,K}
