There is a relationship between the temperature of an object and the wavelength at which the object produces the most light. When an object is hot, it emits more light at short wavelengths while an object emits more light at long wavelengths when it is cold. The amount of radiation emitted by an object at each wavelength depends on its temperature.

Wavelength is inversely proportional to temperature
Wavelength(max)
= b/T
b is 2.90 × 10-3 m-K (meter-Kelvins)
