A common radio wavelength observed coming from astronomical objects is 21 cm. what temperature is associated with this radiation? 1st attempt See Hint Feedback 13.8

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]T = 1.38\times 10^{-2} K[/tex]

Explanation:

Given data:

wavelength = 21 cm

from wein's displacement relation we have

[tex]\lambda_{max} = \frac{b}{T}[/tex]

Where,

b is wein's constant and it is given as  [tex]2.89 \times 10^{−3} m⋅K[/tex]

and T is temperature of radiation , [tex]\lambda_{max}[/tex] represent wavelength

Putting all value in the above equation to obtained desired temperature value

[tex]T = \frac{b}{\lambda_{max}}[/tex]

[tex]T = \frac{2.89\times 10^{-3}}{0.21}[/tex]

[tex]T = 1.38\times 10^{-2} K[/tex]
