    The peak in intensity for our sun on a black body curve would be in

    the 500 nm range.

    We can use Wien's Law to calculate the peak wavelength of a black body

    λ_max = b/T, where b = 2.898 * 10⁶ nm·K

    The "official" temperature of the sun is 5778 K.

    ∴ λ_max = 2.898 * 10⁶ nm·K/5778 K = 501.6 nm
