Star A has a temperature of 5,000 K and Star B has a temperature of 6,000 K. At what wavelengths (in nm) will each of these star's intensity be at its maximum? If the temperatures of the stars increase, the wavelength of maximum intensity. What is the temperature (in K) of a star that appears most intense at a wavelength of 829 nm? Part 1 of 4 Wien's Law tells us how the temperature of a star determines the wavelength of maximum intensity or at what wavelength the star appears brightest. 2.90 x 106 Anm = TK If the temperature is in kelvin (K) then A is in nanometers (nm). Part 2 of 4 To determine the wavelengths of maximum intensity for the two stars: 2.90 x 106 ^A = = 2.90 x 106 nm nm
Stellar evolution
We may see thousands of stars in the dark sky. Our universe consists of billions of stars. Stars may appear tiny to us but they are huge balls of gasses. Sun is a star of average size. Some stars are even a thousand times larger than the sun. The stars do not exist forever they have a certain lifetime. The life span of the sun is about 10 billion years. The star undergoes various changes during its lifetime, this process is called stellar evolution. The structure of the sun-like star is shown below.
Red Shift
It is an astronomical phenomenon. In this phenomenon, increase in wavelength with corresponding decrease in photon energy and frequency of radiation of light. It is the displacement of spectrum of any kind of astronomical object to the longer wavelengths (red) side.
