For any point on the electromagnetic spectrum, the product of
(wavelength) multiplied by (frequency) is 299,792,458 meters per second.
That's the speed of the wave.
The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. In all electromagnetic waves, frequency(in hertz) times wavelength (in meters) equals to 300 000 000 meters per second (wave speed).
The higher the frequency, the more energy there is.
The more energy, the shorter the wavelength
The relationship is: frequency x wavelength = speed. Since the speed of light in a vacuum is the same for all frequencies, you can say that wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency.
wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency.For any wave, wavelength x frequency = speed.

In nuclear reactions, energy is usually released. This energy is released as an electromagnetic wave. Because of the large amount of energy involved, this wave has a high frequency/energy - a gamma ray.
A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.
It is generally unrelated.In the case of an electromagnetic wave, the energy FOR A SINGLE PHOTON is directly proportional to the frequency, i.e., at higher frequencies the photons have more energy. But that tells us nothing about the energy of larger amounts of light, for example.
assuming the wave is electromagnetic... the energy of a single photon of that frequency is given by the formula E=hf where E= energy of the photon h=the Planck constant f= the frequency of the photon From this the energy of the photon is the Planck constant (6.63 x10-34) multiplied by the frequency 3.6x1016 Hz. E= 23.9x10-18 Joules. The wavelength of any wave is determined by the equation wave speed = frequency x wavelength. thus, the wavelength is the wave speed divided by the frequency. since all electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light then... wavelength = 3x108 / 3.6x1016 wavelength = 0.83x10-8 = 8.3x10-9 metres. The electromagnetic radiation corresponding to this energy and wavelength is ultraviolet radiation and may be of interest to nuclear medicine.
An X-ray is a high frequency (high energy) electromagnetic wave. It is much higher in frequency than any broadcast wave. The only electromagnetic radiation with higher frequency (shorter wavelength) than the X-ray is the gamma ray.

There is no upper limit to how much energy (and frequency) an electromagnetic wave can have. The highest frequency waves are called gamma radiation.There is no upper limit to how much energy (and frequency) an electromagnetic wave can have.

The lower the frequency is, the less energy the electromagnetic wave carries. The wavelength is just (186,282 divided by the frequency) miles, or (300,000 divided by the frequency) kilometers.
Frequency determines the scalar energy of electromagnetic wave, E= hf=hc/r.
The higher the frequency of a wave, the higher its energy.
The higher the frequency of a wave, the higher its energy.

A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.
Energy of light photons is related to frequency as Energy = h(Planck's constant)* frequency Frequency = velocity of wave / wavelength So energy = h * velocity of the wave / wavelength
Depends on the wave. In electromagnetic waves, a shorter wavelength means a higher frequency - and the energy of a photon is directly proportional to frequency.
En electromagnetic wave is assimilable to a photon. The energy of a photon is equal to its frequency (that determines its "color") multiplied by the Planck's constant (h).
