Question

in which range is the peak wavelength of a star that is much hotter than the sun most likely to be?
radio waves
infrared radiation
microwaves
ultraviolet light

Explanation:

According to Wien's displacement law, the peak - wavelength of the radiation emitted by a black - body (stars can be approximated as black - bodies) is inversely proportional to its temperature. A star much hotter than the Sun will have a shorter peak - wavelength. Radio waves, infrared radiation, and microwaves have longer wavelengths compared to visible light. Ultraviolet light has a shorter wavelength than visible light. So, a hotter star's peak wavelength is most likely in the ultraviolet range.

Answer:

ultraviolet light
