SUMMARY
Wein's Displacement Law provides a method to calculate the maximum wavelength and frequency of black body radiation. The relationship between wavelength and frequency is defined by the equation c = fλ, where c represents the speed of light. This law is applicable to all forms of black body radiation, including Hawking radiation, confirming its universal relevance in thermal radiation studies.
