What will be the peak wavelength of electromagnetic radiation emitted by a piece of iron that is just melting at a temperature of 1808 K? (Use Wien's law, which relates the peak wavelength max emitted by a body to its temperature T, and see Figure 4-2) (1 m = 10-6 m) .
A) 16 m, intermediate infrared
B) 1.89 m, near infrared
C) 1.6 m, near infrared
D) 1.04 m, very near infrared
