What is Light waves?
Is the direction of the wave of the light energy in the same path of the photon.
What radio wave with the greatest energy?
Radio waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic waves with the greatest energy are gamma rays.
Which type of electromagnetic wave has less energy than an infrared wave?
Waves with lower frequency: for example radio waves.
Which group of waves in the electromagnetic spectrum has the greatest penetrating power?
Those are the ones with the highest frequency/shortest wavelength/most energy per photon. Most . . . gamma rays Next most . . . X-rays . . . Least . . . low-frequency radio waves
How does wavelength affect a wave's energy?
It really depends on the type of wave. In the case of electromagnetic waves, a higher frequency results in more energy per photon. Therefore, a longer wavelength results in less energy per photon.
What is Light waves?
Is the direction of the wave of the light energy in the same path of the photon.
Which is the lowest possible energy state for a photon?
it would be that of the Ground State
What radio wave with the greatest energy?
Radio waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic waves with the greatest energy are gamma rays.
Which type of electromagnetic wave has less energy than an infrared wave?
Waves with lower frequency: for example radio waves.
Are sound waves in solar energy?
No, sound wave is translating wave of the matter. The solar energy is the wave carried by photon which is an energy (non-matter). There is no way a sound wave would be carried in the stream of photon.
What do gamma waves have the greatest?
frequency, energy

Which em spectrum has the longest to the shortest energy?
There is no such thing as "long energy" or "short energy". The electromagnetic spectrum is:Radio waves; microwaves; infrared; visible light; ultraviolet; x-rays; gamma rays. In this list, going from left to right: * The energy per photon increases. * The frequency increases. * The wavelength decreases. Thus, for instance, gamma rays have the LARGEST energy per photon; the LARGEST frequency; and the SHORTEST wavelength.
How does wavelength affect a wave's energy?
It really depends on the type of wave. In the case of electromagnetic waves, a higher frequency results in more energy per photon. Therefore, a longer wavelength results in less energy per photon.
Who named the photon?
Max Planck came up with the idea of a photon of energy, suggesting that instead of waves, each photon had a discrete amount, or a quantum hence the foundation of quantum mechanics. I assume it was him who gave it the name.
The energy you feel as heat from an eletric burner is carried by electromagnetic waves called?
The energy you feel as heat from an electric burner is carried by electromagnetic waves called infrared rays. Particles of light energy is called photon.
Calculate the energy per photon of radio waves of frequency 107.3 MHz?
E = hf The energy per photon is equal to Planck's constant times the frequency, in this case 6.62606957×10−34 x 107.3x106
