Lightning produces a maximum air temperature on the order of 8.9 ✕ 103 K, whereas a nuclear explosion produces a temperature on the order of 9.4 ✕ 106 K. Use Wien's displacement law to calculate the wavelength of the thermally-produced photons radiated with greatest intensity by each of these sources. Select the part of the electromagnetic spectrum where you would expect each to radiate most strongly.
(a) lightning
λmax ≈ ....nm
It radiates most strongly in the ---Select--- gamma ray / x-ray ultraviolet visible infrared microwave radio wave part of the spectrum.
(b) nuclear explosion
λmax ≈ .... pm
It radiates most strongly in the ---Select--- gamma ray / x-ray ultraviolet visible infrared microwave radio wave part of the spectrum.

I. (a) Lighting produces a maximum air temperature of~ 2x104 K, whereas (b) a nuclear explosion produces a temperature of 4x107 K. Use Wien's displacement law to determine the order of magnitude of the wavelength of the thermally produced photons radiated with greatest intensity by each of these sources. If the radiation area for each of the two radiation sources is 10 m, determine the radiation power for each of them.

PLEASE ANSWERS TO ALL QUESTIONS NEEDED, THANKS Problem 13.10(a) Purpose: This is to help familiarize you with characteristics of electromagnetic waves. Problem: An electromagnetic wave travels in the z direction. The electric field in the wave is given by the expression E(z,t) = E0cos(kz-ωt)y. (Bold letter are vectors.) At z = 0 and t = 0, in what direction does the magnetic field point? Hints: Remember that E crossed into B gives the direction of travel. Enter your answer,...
