Q. Which of the following statements is false ?

JEE MainJEE Main 2018Structure of Atom

Solution:

A body which can emit or absorb radiation of all frequencies is known as blackbody and the radiation emitted by it is known as blackbody radiation.

At a given temperature, the spectral emissive power, of light emitted by a blackbody depends on the wavelength emitted. At a given temperature, the intensity of radiation emitted increases with increase of wavelength, reaches a maximum value and then decreases with further increase in wavelength.

With increase in the temperature of the blackbody, the wavelength corresponding to the most intense radiation decreases.
