Question

For a body emitting blackbody radiation, the total power emitted is proportional to the 4th power of the body’s absolute temperature:

(T in kelvins)

and the wavelength of the emitted EM radiation that has the highest intensity is inversely proportional to the body’s absolute temperature according to:

( in meters, T in kelvins)

Assume an object is emitting blackbody radiation.
