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.


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.


Do radio waves have short or long wavelength?

Short wavelength


Which carries more energy a wave with short wavelenght or a wave with long wavelenght?

Short Wave length


Which wavelength has more energy short or long?

Short wavelengths has more energy. (X-rays Gamma rays belongs to this category.) Long wavelengths has less energy (radio waves and light belongs to this category). I hope this would be enough.


What is the opposite of long wavelength?

Short wavelengths.


Does ROY G. BIV list colors from long wavelength to short wavelength or short to long wavelength?

The color of visible light with the longest wavelength is red; the color with the shortest is violet. So "ROY G. BIV" lists the colors from long to short wavelength. Just to confuse you, we'll also mention that it lists them from lowest to highest frequency.


What affects light with short wavelength more than light with long wavelength?

Scattering of light


Short wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation have more energy than long wavelengths?

E = hC/ λwhere h is Planck's constantc is speed of lightλ is wavelengthHence,Energy is inversely proportional to wavelengthSo short wavelength has more energy than long wavelength!!


Is infrared light too long wavelength or too short wavelength to be seen?

I looked it up in my physics text book and it says that the wavelength is too long to be seen by the human eye.


Does wavelength determine the watts of a bulb?

The Wattage of a bulb tell you how much power (energy per second) you put into it. The energy will come out mostly as heat but obviously also light. The wavelength has the units of length and tells you what type and color of light it generates. The energy in each particle (photon) of light is dependent on the wavelength but the total power input isn't directly related. You can have both high and low input power infra red (long wavelength) and Ultraviolet (short wavelength) lamps.


Red light is low energy and has long wavelengths?

Violet light has a short wavelength, high frequency, and high energy. Red light has a much higher wavelength than violet light.
