On observing light from three different stars $P, Q$ and $R$, it was found that intensity of violet colour is maximum in the spectrum of $P$, the intensity of green colour is maximum in the spectrum of $R$ and the intensity of red colour is maximum in the spectrum of $Q$. If $T_P, T_Q$ and $T_R$ are the respective absolute temperatures of $P, Q$ and $R$, then it can be concluded from the above observations that
  • A$T_p>T_Q>T_R$
  • B$T_p>T_R>T_Q$
  • C$T_p < T_R < T_Q$
  • D$T_p < T_Q < T_R$
