(a) Wien's displacement law states that the black body radiation curve for different temperatures peak at a wavelength inversely proportional to temperature.

When the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the overall radiated energy increases and the peak of the radiation curve moves to shorter wavelengths.

The relation is presented as $\lambda_{m} T=$ constant
