Question

How are frequency, wavelength, and energy related? Choose all that apply.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The energy of a wave is given by :

$E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}$

Where

h is Planck's constant

c is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is wavelength

Energy is inversely proportional to wavelength. Also, the relation between frequency and wavelength is inverse.

If the frequency is high, the wavelength will be shorter.

Hence, the correct options are :

Higher frequencies have shorter wavelengths.

Shorter wavelengths have lower energy.

Lower frequencies have lower energy.
