The false statement is - C. It is common for a plant or animal to fossilize when it dies.

In for a plant or animal to fossilize, there have to certain conditions that will enable that process, or rather preservation. That is not the case usually, and considering the amount of animals and plants that existed, and even more the ones that existed in the geological past, the amount of fossils is extremely small. If it was common for the plants and animals to be fossilized, even 1 out of 1,000, than we would have been seeing and finding fossils pretty much on every spot of the planet, but that is not the case.

Using Wien’s Law, estimate the wavelength at which these common materials radiate their peak brightness (show your work):
SSSSS [86.1K]

Explanation:

Wien’s Law:

\lambda _{max}\propto \frac{1}{temperature}

The law states that the wavelength at which black body emits maximum heat  is inversely proportional to the temperature of the body in Kelvins.

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3}}{T}

1) Walls at 300 K

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{300 K}

\lambda _{max}=9.666\times 10^{-6} m

2) Ice water at 273 K :

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{273 K}

\lambda _{max}=1.062\times 10^{-5} m

3) Hot water at 373 K :

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{373 K}

\lambda _{max}=7.775\times 10^{-6} m

4)Skin at 310 K:

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{310 K}

\lambda _{max}=9.355\times 10^{-6} m

5)An incandescent light bulb at 3000 K

\lambda _{max}=\frac{2.9\times 10^{-3} mK}{3000 K}

\lambda _{max}=9.666\times 10^{-7} m
