    Wien's displacement law states that the black body radiation curve for different temperatures peaks at a wavelength inversely proportional to the temperature. Named for Wilhelm Wien. (See also Wien approximation.) Wiio's laws: The fundamental Wiio's law states that "Communication usually fails, except by accident".

    Formally, the wavelength version of Wien's displacement law states that the spectral radiance of black-body radiation per unit wavelength, peaks at the wavelength given by: = where T is the absolute temperature and b is a constant of proportionality called Wien's displacement constant, equal to 2.897 771 955... × 10 −3 m⋅K, [1] [2] or b ...

Regarding disasters, in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations and the principles of humanitarian law, VDPA emphasizes the importance of and the need for humanitarian aid to victims of all natural disaster and man-made disaster.

  5. Wien approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien_approximation

    Comparison of Wien’s curve and the Planck curve. Wien's approximation (also sometimes called Wien's law or the Wien distribution law) is a law of physics used to describe the spectrum of thermal radiation (frequently called the blackbody function). This law was first derived by Wilhelm Wien in 1896.

    Wien's law or Wien law may refer to: . Wien approximation, an equation used to describe the short-wavelength (high frequency) spectrum of thermal radiation; Wien's displacement law, an equation that describes the relationship between the temperature of an object and the peak wavelength or frequency of the emitted light

  7. State responsibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_responsibility

    The topic of state responsibility was one of the first 14 areas provisionally selected for the ILC's attention in 1949. [7] When the ILC listed the topic for codification in 1953, "state responsibility" was distinguished from a separate topic on the "treatment of aliens", reflecting the growing view that state responsibility encompasses the breach of an international obligation.

  9. Diffusion of responsibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_of_responsibility

    Diffusion of responsibility [1] is a sociopsychological phenomenon whereby a person is less likely to take responsibility for action or inaction when other bystanders or witnesses are present. Considered a form of attribution , the individual assumes that others either are responsible for taking action or have already done so.
