Our sun's (5800 mathrm{~K}) surface temperature gives a peak wavelength in the middle of the visible spectrum.

Question:

Our sun's \(5800 \mathrm{~K}\) surface temperature gives a peak wavelength in the middle of the visible spectrum. What is the minimum surface temperature for a star whose emission peaks at some wavelength less than \(400 \mathrm{~nm}\) - that is, in the ultraviolet?
