Correct Answer - Option 4 : Wien's displacement law

Concept:

Wien's displacement law: 

The wavelength of thermal radiation most copiously emitted by a blackbody is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature of the body. Formally, Wien's displacement law states that the spectral radiance of black-body radiation per unit wavelength peaks at the wavelength λpeak given by:

\({\lambda_{peak}} = \frac{b}{T}\)

where T is the absolute temperature. b is a constant of proportionality called Wien's displacement constant

Rayleigh's law

An approximate law of scattering of electromagnetic waves by molecules and particles is small compared with the wavelength of the illumination at wavelengths for which absorption is sufficiently small.

Planck's law

Planck's law describes the spectral density of electromagnetic radiation. These radiations are emitted by black bodies when they remain in thermal equilibrium at a given temperature.
This law gives the spectral distribution of radiation from a blackbody.

Stefan-Boltzmann law: 

The total radiant heat power emitted from a surface is proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature.
