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>

How are riverine island formed in northern plains.?​
patriot [66]

Answer:

The rivers coming from the northern mountains carry alluvium with them and do the depositional work. In the lower course, due to gentle slope, the velocity of the river decreases which results in the formation of riverine islands.
