What is the relationship between the wavelength of a wave and its energy?
Reader question: What is the relationship between the wavelength of a wave and its energy?
A. The longer the wavelength, the less energy it carries.
B. Shorter wavelengths carry less energy.
C. There is no relationship between wavelengths and energy.
D. The longer the wavelength, the more energy it carries.
Subscribe to comments on this postSamuel Clemens’s pseudonym “Mark Twain” was the nickname of a riverboat pilot about whom Clemens wrote a needless nasty satirical piece. Apparently, Clemens felt guilty later and adopted the nom de plume as some sort of expiation. The phrase “mark twain” from which the river pilot got his name does not mean two fathoms (twelve feet.)

A.

relation is Ennergy = h*c / wavelength (E=hf)
h=plancks contant
c=speed of light
so ur option A is correct.

E= hc/lambda
Therefore, wavelength is inversely proportional to energy.

Its A. The longer the wavelength, the less energy it carries.
