Question
You are working in a shop and are responsible for enacting the CoVID protocols before potential customers enter the shop (shoppers are not to be admitted if they have a temperature over 38.0°C). Unfortunately, the equipment you have been given to measure a person's temperature reports their peak wavelength instead. If a person has a peak wavelength of 9.320 μm, are they allowed to enter the store? A full solution must support your answer.
