Answer: The star Alnilam is hotter

Explanation:

The question seems to be the continuation of another question, which is written below:

Use Wien's law to calculate the surface temperature of the star Alnilam in Kelvin. The peak wavelength \lambda_{p} of the star is 0.116 \mu m

So, by using <u>Wien's displacement law</u>, which relates the wavelength  \lambda_{p} where the intensity of the radiation is maximum with the temperature T of the black body, and expresed as:

\lambda_{p}.T=C    (1)

Where:

T is in Kelvin (K)

\lambda_{p}=0.116 \mu m=0.116 (10)^{-6} m is the wavelength of the emission peak in meters (m).

C=0.0028976 mK is the Wien constant

We can find Alnilam's temperature and then compare it with the Sun's temperature (T_{Sun}=5778 K):

T_{Alnilam}=\frac{C}{\lambda_{p}}    (2)

T_{Alnilam}=\frac{0.0028976 mK}{0.116 (10)^{-6} m}    (3)

T_{Alnilam}=24979.310 K    (4)

As we can see T_{Alnilam} > T_{Sun}, hence:

<h3>The star Alnilam is hotter</h3>
