What does a wavelength carry?
A wavelength carry energy. Strictly speaking, a wave carries energy. A wavelength is a property of a wave.
Which wavelength carries more energy short or long?
Short wavelength wave carry not energy (in proportion to their frequency.)
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.
What is the shortest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum carries the greatest amount of energy?
The shortest wavelengths have the most energy because it has the highest frequency. A high energy light will have a shorter wavelength than a low energy light. If the wavelength goes down, then the frequency goes up. When calculating energy in the equation, E=hv, frequency (v) is the variable, not the wavelength. So in the equation, if you wanted a more energy (E), you would have the frequency be large. For the frequency to be big, then the wavelength has to be low.
Which wavelength of electromagnetic radiation carries the most energy?

How does the amount of energy in the light changes as the wavelength increases?
The energy of the photons decreases as the wavelength increases
How does the amount energy affect the size of the wavelength?
Energy does not effect WAVELENGTH, it effects the AMPLITUDE of the Wave.
How does the energy of three photons of blue light compare with that of one photon of blue light from the same source?
If the color (frequency, wavelength) of each is the same, then each photon carries the same amount of energy. Three of them carry three times the energy that one of them carries.
What wavelength of electromagnetic carries the most energy?
Gamma rays have the most energy per photon.
What wavelength of electromagnetic radiation carries the most energy?
Gamma rays have the most energy per photon.
What wave form typically carries the greatest amount of energy through the ocean surface at any given time?
short waves
Is the greatest amount of energy at the producer level?
yes, we can get the greatest amount of energy at the producer level.
