Question

The greater the frequency of an EM wave, the _______________ its energy.

Answer 1

Answer:

The greater the frequency of an EM wave, the greater its energy.

Explanation:

The energy and frequency are directly related to each other.

The higher the frequency the greater will be the energy of wave.

Mathematical relationship:

E = h.f

E = energy

h = planck's constant

f = frequency

While wavelength and energy are inversely related to each other.

The wave with lowest wavelength have higher energy.

The above expression can be written as,

E = h.f

f = c/λ

E = h. c/ λ.
