Expressing Planck's Law as a function of frequency, we have:
<br /> I(\nu)=\frac{2h\nu^3}{c^2}\frac{1}{e^{\frac{h\nu}{kT}}-1}
Expressing this in terms of wavelength, one should get
<br /> I(\lambda)=\frac{2hc^2}{\lambda^5}\frac{1}{e^{\frac{hc}{\lambda kT}}-1}
but I don't see how this is obvious by subbing in c=\lambda \nu
Any insights?
Thanks
