What is meant by energy spectrum of a black body? : quantum physics..

Answer / Amit Pant

The energy spectrum of a black body refers to the distribution of energies among the electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by a black body. Planck's law describes this distribution, which exhibits a peak at a characteristic temperature and shows that the energy of the radiation is quantized in units proportional to the frequency (or wavelength). This finding was instrumental in the development of quantum mechanics and implies that energy can only be emitted or absorbed in discrete amounts.
