Two identical ceramic tiles are inside a testing chamber. Tile P has a shorter peak wavelength in its emitted radiation than tile Q. The radiation emitted by both tiles is measured for 10 s.
Which statement compares the temperatures of the tiles and the energy they emit?
P is cooler and emits less energy in the 10 s interval.
P is hotter and emits more energy in the 10 s interval.
P is cooler and emits more energy in the 10 s interval.
P is hotter and emits less energy in the 10 s interval.
