Solution:
From Wien's displacement law, $T \propto 1/\lambda_{max}$. Thus $T'/T = \lambda_0 / (3\lambda_0/4) = 4/3$. According to Stefan's law, Power $P \propto T^4$. So, $P'/P = (T'/T)^4 = (4/3)^4 = 256/81$.
The power radiated by a black body is $P$ and it radiates maximum energy at wavelength, $\lambda_0$. If the temperature of the black body is now changed so that it radiates maximum energy at wavelength $\frac{3}{4}\lambda_0$, the power radiated by it becomes $nP$. The value of $n$ is: (2018)
