Suppose, in question 2, the temperature of planet B doubles.

(a) What would be its wavelength of maximum energy emission?

(b) In what region of the electromagnetic spectrum would this wavelength be found?

(c) If the temperature of planet A remained the same, determine which planet (A or B) would now be emitting the most radiation (use the Stefan-Boltzmann relationship on p. 40). Explain your answer.
