A laboratory furnace is held at 1200 K1200\,\text{K}. The measured wavelength corresponding to maximum emission is 2.40 μm2.40\,\mu\text{m}. Calculate the product λmax⁡T\lambda_{\max}T and state whether it agrees with Wien’s displacement law (b=2.898×10−3 m Kb = 2.898\times10^{-3}\,\text{m\,K}) within reasonable experimental error.
