Obviously, either Susskind misuderstood Einstein's statements, or you misread Susskind. If there is no photon, there is no light.

Q: In The Black Hole Wars pg 208 Leonard Susskind says Einstein found that short wavelength light has less than 1 photon and less than 1 means none. So they carry no energy. But E equals hf?

Is leonard susskind wrong in the black hole war when unlike steven hawking he states a black hole can not destroy energy?

There is no 'war'. There are competing theories. One may proven to be correct. Or neither.


What happens to a wavelength if no energy is supplied to it?

without energy there cannot be a wavelength.


What does the wavelength of an EM wave tell about its energy?

The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher its energy.


How are the energy and wavelength radiation related?

Energy and wavelength are related by Planck's Energy formula E = hf = hc/w where w is the wavelength.


How does the energy associated with waves change wavelength changes?

a shorter wavelength means lower energy. A shorter wavelength means high energy


What does a wavelength carry?

A wavelength carry energy. Strictly speaking, a wave carries energy. A wavelength is a property of a wave.


When wavelength increases frequency and energy do what?

Frequency and energy decrease as wavelength increases.


What does the wavelength of an em tell about it's energy?

As the wavelength decreases, the energy increases.


How are energy and wavelength of electromagnet radiation related?

The greater the energy the shorter the wavelength.


What do the visible color of visible light represent?

wavelenghts of energy NOVANET! It represent different in energy of photon at different colour range. Different wavelength yield different colour whether we can see it or not. The evolution choose this range of light to be visible for abundant of such spectrum range from the sun while some animal can see light at lower wavelength to infrared especially for Nocturnal. Energy content of a photon can simply express by Planck-Einstein equation E = hc/L where E = Energy in a photon h = Planck constant c = speed of light and L = wavelength Longer wavelength -> Red = lesser energy Shorer wavelength -> Violet = higher energy

Photon energy and frequency increases as the wavelength of light?

The energy increases as the frequency increases.The frequency decreases as the wavelength increases.So, the energy decreases as the wavelength increases.
