Corporations are often accused of despoiling the environment in their quest for profit. Free enterprise is supposedly incompatible with environmental preservation so that government regulation is required.
Such thinking is the basis for current proposals to expand environmental regulation greatly. So many new controls have been proposed and enacted that the late economic journalist Warren Brookes once forecast that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) could well become "the most powerful government agency on earth, involved in massive levels of economic, social, scientific, and political spending and interference.
But if the profit motive is the primary cause of pollution, one would not expect to find much pollution in socialist countries, such as the former Soviet Union, China, and in the former Communist countries of Eastern and Central Europe. That is, in theory. In reality, exactly the opposite is true: The socialist world suffers from the worst pollution on earth. Could it be that free enterprise is not so incompatible with environmental protection after all?
Is there a picture that is supposed to be attached?
Answer:
So the wavelength of light is 1015.7 nm
Explanation:
From Wein's displacement law, we can write the following formula;
here, is the wavelength of maximum radiation in meters
T is the absolute temperature (in Kelvin) for maximum radiation
K is the constant has a value of
Given here, T = 2853 K
And we need to find
Putting the values in formula
