How does the energy associated with waves change as the wavelength change?

A short wavelength means higher energy


What wave would have more enery one with a long wavelength or a short wavelength?

Both a wave with long wavelength and a wave with short wavelength can have a lot of energy, or little energy.Specifically in the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength corresponds to high energy - but this is only the energy PER PHOTON. But note that each of such waves usually consists of a lot of photons.


Which types of waves carries the most energy?

high frequency, short wavelength :)


Do radio waves have short or long wavelength?

Short wavelength


Does a high- frequency wave have short wavelength?

Yes, the shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy. Gamma waves have the shortest wavelengths of all the electromagnetic radiation waves and carry the greatest energy. Radio and TV waves have the longest wavelengths and carry the least energy.


Explain why the energy of infrared waves is greater than the energy of radio waves?

The energy of infrared waves is greater than the energy of radio waves. This is because infrared waves has a smaller wavelength compared to radio waves. The smaller the wavelength, the higher the energy.


Does short-wavelength light carry more energy or less energy than long-wavelength light?

The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency, and the higher the energy, so X-rays carry more energy than radio waves.

How does the energy associated with waves change wavelength changes?

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


Electromagnetic waves of the longest wavelength carry the greatest energy?

No. The energy of an EM wave is E = h*c / (wavelength), therefore waves with the shortest wavelength (or highest frequency) carry the greatest energy.


Why are the high frequency waves also referred to as short waves?

high frequency = short wavelength


Electromagnetic waves differ only in their what their energy and their frequency?

wavelength,frequency, and speed
