Photons with shorter wavelengths have larger what?
More frequency, and more energy.
What does the wavelength of an EM wave tell about its energy?
The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher its energy.
What is quantum electronics?
The study of quantum effects on electrons and their interaction with other particles, especially photons. Usually it is considered as part of a larger context.
When the wavelength becomes smaller the frequency?
when the wavelength become smaller frequency becomes larger
What is the shortest region of the electromagnetic spectum?
Visible region is the shortest region in the electromagnetic spectrum. Please see the attached picture. It is the shortest defined region. However if you mean wavelength, the further you go on the UV side, the shorter the wavelength. If you are talking about frequence, frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional, so it would be furthest to the IR side. The question is not about the shorter wavelength or less frequency. It is about the region covered in the whole spectrum. So visible with VIBGYOR having wavelength starting from 350 nm to 750 nm will be the visible region where as other regions such as UV and IR would have a larger range.
Photons with shorter wavelengths have larger what?
More frequency, and more energy.
Gamma rays have shorter wavelength than infrared rays?
Yes. The wavelength of radiation is w=hc/Energy. Gamma energy is larger than infrared energy, thus has shorter wavelength.
Why is radiation with the shortest wavelength actually the most powerful?
I assume you are talking about electromagnetic radiation.If the wavelength is shorter, the frequency is larger. And the energy per photon is directly proportional to the frequency.
What does the wavelength of an EM wave tell about its energy?
The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher its energy.
Which has a larger wavelength a slow moving photon or a fast moving golf ball?
there are no slow moving photons, they move at speed of light.
Why does a wave with short wavelenth have a high frequency?
Wave velocity in general = frequency x wavelength As the velocity of the wave remains constant then frequency and wavelength are inversely related So as the wavelength becomes shorter then frequency becomes larger or higher
Is wavelength measured in hertz or meters?
Usually, no. The wavelength of visible light is usually measured in nanometers. Only larger forms of electromagnetic radiation, like radio waves, are measured in meters.
The lower the frequency of a sound wave the?
For electromagnetic waves:Speed(v)=frequency(f)*wavelength(lambda)ORwavelength(lambda)=speed(v)/frequency(f)Therefore, wavelength and frequency have an Inverse relationship this means that assuming speed remains constant if the wavelength increases (gets longer) the frequency will decrease.
What is quantum electronics?
The study of quantum effects on electrons and their interaction with other particles, especially photons. Usually it is considered as part of a larger context.
Why are radio telescopes typically built so large compared with optical telescopes?
Radio telescopes are much larger than optical telescopes because of wavelength. Earth's atmosphere has two major "windows" where it is transparent to photons: 300 nm - 800 nm: optical wavelength window (approximate) 30 mm - 30 m: radio wavelength window (approximate) Even the shortest-wavelengths used by radio telescopes at around 30 mm are still thousands of times longer than the longest wavelengths used by optical telescopes. The wavelength has 2 effects on the size of a telescope: * The angular resolution (in order to distinguish 2 nearby stars, FWHM) depends on the wavelength/aperture ratio. Radio-frequency photons require a wider aperture to focus than visible-light-frequency photons, so radio telescopes *must* be larger to get a reasonable resolution. * A telescope typically requires the collecting area to be aligned within 1/10 of the wavelength it is designed for. Because it is almost impossible to get all the parts of a sufficiently large telescope aligned to within 80 nm, radio telescopes *can* be built much larger.
When the magnitude of kc is very large it indicate?
IF by "kc" you mean the outdated term kilocycles [a measurement of frequency, usually used in measuring electromagnetic radiation (radio)] then the larger (greater) the magnitude, the higher the frequency and the shorter the wavelength. This is basic physics... Your description indicates a poor mastery of technical English.
When the wavelength becomes smaller the frequency?
when the wavelength become smaller frequency becomes larger
