Answer

a. $T=1.61\times10^5K$ b. $\lambda_p =1.3\times10^{-6}m$

Work Step by Step

Use Wien’s law, equation 27–2. a. $T=\frac{2.90\times10^{-3}m \cdot K}{\lambda_p}$ $$T=\frac{2.90\times10^{-3}m \cdot K}{18.0\times10^{-9}m}=1.61\times10^5K$$ b. $\lambda_p =\frac{2.90\times10^{-3}m \cdot K}{2200K}=1.3\times10^{-6}m$.
