Here do this quick example to answer your question. Put your dominant hand on your cheek and then extend it all the way to the right, then return to your cheek. Repeat the process a couple times. How does your cheek feel? A little flustered, but your cheek did not receive a lot of energy. Now put your hand against your cheek again but this time go only a couple inches away to the right this time. Repeat this process a couple times. Your slapping yourself a lot more and your cheek is receiving more energy than when you extended your hand all the way.
This applies to how your hand was a wavelength, as you went farther from your cheek(bigger wavelength) you experienced less energy be cause it took a while for your hand to come back to your cheek, while the shorter wavelength gave you more energy in the same amount of time. I guess we both win I imagine someone in the world slapping themselves and you get your answer question. Bon apetiet!
Short-wavelength radiation, such as gamma rays and X-rays, carry the greatest amount of energy on Earth. These wavelengths have higher frequency and shorter wavelengths compared to longer-wavelength radiation like visible light or radio waves.
the lowest frequency Lester was here
-- longest wavelength -- lowest frequency
The colors in a rainbow are ordered by their wavelength, with red having the longest wavelength and lowest energy. Thus, red is the lowest-energy color in the rainbow spectrum.
No, ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation is not the lowest on the electromagnetic spectrum. It falls between ultraviolet B (UVB) and visible light in terms of wavelength and energy. UVA radiation is longer in wavelength compared to UVB, but shorter than visible light.
Amount of energy in a wave is defined by the wave's amplitude. The wave's location on the electro-magnetic spectrum does not define it's energy. However, there could be a correlation between a wave's wavelength and it's energy per wavelength. In this case, it would be your gamma ray.
The lowest wavelength corresponds to the highest frequency of electromagnetic radiation, typically found in gamma rays. Wavelengths for gamma rays can be less than 0.01 nanometers (10 picometers) or even shorter. In contrast to longer wavelengths such as radio waves, these shorter wavelengths carry significantly more energy. Thus, the lowest wavelength is associated with the most energetic forms of radiation.
High-energy photons correspond to short-wavelength light while low-energy photons correspond to long-wavelength light. In short, the answer is red. For short-wavelengths (high energy photons) it would appear blue.
Red
An electromagnetic wave with a longer wavelength will have a smaller frequency, and less energy per photon.An electromagnetic wave with a longer wavelength will have a smaller frequency, and less energy per photon.An electromagnetic wave with a longer wavelength will have a smaller frequency, and less energy per photon.An electromagnetic wave with a longer wavelength will have a smaller frequency, and less energy per photon.
Red light has the longest wavelength among the visible spectrum because it has the lowest frequency and energy. The longer wavelength of red light causes it to scatter less than other colors, giving it the ability to travel farther through the atmosphere and water.
The energy of EM radiation depends on its frequency, and the lowest frequency corresponds to the lowest energy. Radio waves are at the low end of the energy and frequency spectrum.
