Which variable is directly proportional to frequency?
Frequency, when referring to waves, is directly proportional to the velocity of the wave. Frequency in inversely proportional to the wavelength.
What is the relationship between energy and the speed of light?
E= hc/x
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 sound a physical property?
Sound is a change of energy status from one type to another , but of a physical nature. when a jet aeroplane flies fast enough to break the speed of sound it causes shock waves in the air by compression, and changes this into a sound wave / noise . so this is a physical change , not chemical.
What is the steam energy particle called?
While some forms of energy can be considered as either particle or wave, steam is not one of those. The energy of steam comes from it expansion. There is no steam energy particle.
Is a wave amplitude is directly proportional to the energy applied?
Nope, Energy is directly proportional to square of amplitude. :)
Is a wave's frequency is indirectly proportional to the energy applied?
No. Energy content of wave packet is directly proportional to the frequency.
How are a wave's energy and the wave's amplitude related?
they are directly proportional.
Is a wave's amplitude directly proportional to the energy applied?
no
What is the energy in a photon of light proportional to?
The amount of energy in a photon of light is proportional to the frequency of the corresponding light wave.... frequency of the electromagnetic radiation of which the photon is a particle.
Which variable is directly proportional to frequency?
Frequency, when referring to waves, is directly proportional to the velocity of the wave. Frequency in inversely proportional to the wavelength.
What is the relationship between wavelenth and energy in a wave?
The two are unrelated. In an electromagnetic wave, the photon's energy is directly proportional to the frequency, and thus inversely proportional to the wavelength, but that doesn't say anything about the total energy in the wave (which may consist of billions of photons).
What is the relationship of wavelength and energy in a wave?
Depends on the wave. In electromagnetic waves, a shorter wavelength means a higher frequency - and the energy of a photon is directly proportional to frequency.
What does the energy of an em depend on?
If you mean electromagnetic waves, the energy per photon is directly proportional to the frequency (and therefore inversely proportional to the wavelength). The total energy of the wave, of course, can be just about anything.
What is the relation between the frequency and energy?
In the case of electromagnetic wave, the energy of a photon is directly proportional to the frequency. For other types of waves, the situation may be different.
How is the relationship between the frequency and the wavelength of electromagnetic energy?
Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength (higher frequency means a shorter wavelength). Frequency is directly proportional to the energy of the wave (higher frequencies correspond to higher energies).
Does amplitude determine the energy of a wave?
Yes. Basically, the energy is proportional to the square of the amplitude.Yes. Basically, the energy is proportional to the square of the amplitude.Yes. Basically, the energy is proportional to the square of the amplitude.Yes. Basically, the energy is proportional to the square of the amplitude.
