Can the Wien displacement law be used to determine the temperature of an object based on its emitted radiation?
Yes, the Wien displacement law can be used to estimate the temperature of an object by measuring the wavelength at which its spectral radiance is maximum. By knowing this peak wavelength $(\\lambda_{max})$, one can use the formula $\\lambda_{max} = \\frac{(hc)}{(k_B T)}$ and solve for the temperature (T).
