(a) White. The temperature of body is at $1600^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

Temp Colour Temp. Colour
$525\circ C$ Light red $1200\circ C$ Yellow
$900\circ C$ Cherry red $1300\circ C$ Green
$1100\circ C$ Orange red $1600\circ C$ White

According to Wien's displacement law, $\lambda T=$ constant. For red, $\lambda$ is large sotemperature is less. For blue temperature is large accordingly.
