... frequency of the electromagnetic radiation of which the photon is a particle.
The amount of energy in a photon of light is proportional to the frequency of the corresponding light wave.... frequency of the electromagnetic radiation of which the photon is a particle.
Energy of a photon of this wave would be (planck's constant) ( frequency) E = hf = 5.46 * 10-22 J So to find the energy of the whole wave, multiply the energy of a photon to the no. of photons in a wave.
The higher the frequency of a wave, the higher its energy
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).

Either as: A particle, the photon, A packet of energy, the quantum of electromagnetism(still known as the photon), and A wave of a specific frequency, a wave of radiation that has a certain energy
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.
The higher the frequency of a wave, the higher its energy.
Remember that for any wave, wavelength x frequency = speed (of the wave). So, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases. Also, since the energy of a photon is proportional to the frequency, the energy will decrease as well in this case.
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
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.
