What is the wavelength of a photon that has three times as much energy as that of a photon whose wavelength is 779 nm?
Photon energy is proportional to frequency ==> inversely proportional to wavelength.3 times the energy ==> 1/3 times the wavelength = 779/3 = 2592/3 nm
The longer the wavelength of light?
The longer the wavelength of light, the smaller its frequency, and the less energy there is for every photon.
A packet of energy that carries a quantum of energy?
Packet of energy refers to a quantized or definite amount of energy carried by a particle. This packet energy or lumps of energy depends on the wavelength which can be found from Planck's formula E=hf. This is the idea originally provided by Max Planck to explain Black Body Radiation and to solve Ultra-violate catastrophe which later on came out to be the inception of Quantum Mechanics.
Which has more energy an infrared or xray photon?
An X-ray proton. This is so because the x-ray has much higher frequency and shorter waves.
Light energy is proof of which Conservation Law?
I am not sure how much of a proof this is; but light energy is involved both in conservation of energy, and in conservation of momentum. A photon has both energy and momentum.I am not sure how much of a proof this is; but light energy is involved both in conservation of energy, and in conservation of momentum.

Transition A produces light with a wavelength of 400 nm Transition B involves twice as much energy as A What wavelenth light does it produce?
Energy per photon is proportional to frequency. That tells us that it's alsoinversely proportional to wavelength.So if Photon-A has wavelength of 400-nm, then wavelength of Photon-Bwith twice as much energy is 200-nm .
Does Light photon has more energy than x-ray photon?
Yes, due to the energy of photons/electromagnetic particles being determined by the equations below: E= hv=hc(1/v)= hc/wavelength. Where E= energy, v= frequency in Hz, h= Planck's constant, c= speed of light Electrons have a very short wavelength, and a very high frequency, thus they have much more energy than a beam of light.

An X-ray proton. This is so because the x-ray has much higher frequency and shorter waves.
What has more energy a microwave signal or a gamma ray?
The photon (quantum) at gamma frequency has more energy than a photon at microwave frequency has. But you can easily generate a beam of microwaves carrying more energy than, for example, the gamma rays that enter your house from space. Just use a more powerful source of microwaves to generate more photons. No big deal. The one in your kitchen that you use to heat the leftover meatloaf pours out far more energy every second than gamma rays bring into your house, but each microwave photon carries much less energy than a gamma photon does.
How much more energetic is a 720nm wavelength than a 520?
-- I have to assume that the '520' figure is also a wavelength in nm.-- The energy of a photon is proportional to its frequency. That also meansthat the energy is inversely proportional to its wavelength. So the photonwith the greater wavelength has less energy.-- 720/520 = 1.385The shorter-wave photon has 38.5% more energy than the longer-wave one.-- 520/720 = 0.722The longer wave photon has 72.2% as much energy as the shorter-wave one has.

Is light emitted when an electron makes a transition to a lower energy level?
No, as energy is absorbed. When the reverse happens, the higher state to lower state, the electron is returning to its lower energy level ground state and energy is released in the form of a photon.
Does visible light have more or less energy than ultraviolet light?
Well, first of all, protons don't make light. I think you mean 'photons'. A photon of ultraviolet light carries more energy than a photon of visible light, because it has a higher frequency / shorter wavelength.
Which has higher frequencies microwaves or visible lights?
Visible light has shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves, which might be considered the highest energy radio waves, have a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than visible light.
