Question

26. The equation E=hf describes the energy of each photon in a beam of light. If Planck’s constant, h, were larger, would photons of light of the same frequency be more energetic or less energetic. Be sure to explain using at least 3 content related sentences.

Answer 1

The equation of the energy of a photon is E=h*f.

If we increase the Planck's constant h, the energy would increase. 

For example, lets double the value of Planck's constant and name it H:

H=2*h. Now lets put that into the equation for energy that we will call E₂:

E₂=H*f=2*h*f=2*E. 

So we can clearly see that E₂=2*E or that if we double Planck's constant, the energy also doubles.
