Does the extinction coefficient increase if the wavelength is increased?
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.
What is the set of frequencies of the electromagnetic waves emitted by the atoms of an element?
Wavelength is just a length so you can have wavelengths of any length. Gamma rays are the shortest and are typically .00000000001 meters long (or 10^-12 m). Visible light is around .000001 meters (or 10^-6 m) long. Radio waves range from meters to many kilometers. Frequency is related inversely to wavelength. You can think of yourself standing on a pier and watching the waves go by. The smaller the waves the higher the frequency of their passing and longer waves would go by at a lower frequency. All EM waves go at the speed of light and their frequency and wavelengths are related by the following equation: L = c / f where L (typically written with the greek letter Lambda) is wavelength, c is the speed of light and f is the frequency in Hertz.
How energy is directly proportional to frequency?
Maxwell Plank found a direct relationship between the energy of a photon and its freq. This relationship can be expressed as E=h*f, where E is energy, h is Plank's constant and f is frequency. For more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck\'s_constant wtf -.-
Is one cycle the same as one wavelength?
Imagine a cork floating on some water and a wave goes by. The cork goes up and down. The number of times it goes up and down in one second is the frequency of the wave. When the cork goes through one cycle the wave will have advanced one wavelength. You will find the simple mathematical description in the related links below.
When is the characteristic bright-line spectrum of an atom produced?
In the laboratory in a flame test. Electrons are excited to higher energy levels and when they fall back light is emitted. The frequency (colour), v is related to the energy by Plancks equation, E=hv
How are frequency speed and wavelength related?
they are related by the equation velocity=frequency*wavelength
How is frequency related to velocity?
the velocity of a wave is given by frequency*its wavelength
How are wavelength frequency and energy are related?
Energy of light photons is related to frequency as Energy = h(Planck's constant)* frequency Frequency = velocity of wave / wavelength So energy = h * velocity of the wave / wavelength
What type of proportion are wavelength and frequency in the wavelength frequency equation?
They are inversely related
Are frequency and wavelength related?
Yes, velocity equals the product of frequency times wavelength, v=fw.
How are wave length and wave frequency are related?
velocity = frequency x wavelength
Why does a wave with short wavelenth have a high frequency?
Wave velocity in general = frequency x wavelength As the velocity of the wave remains constant then frequency and wavelength are inversely related So as the wavelength becomes shorter then frequency becomes larger or higher
What is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength of 300000 kilometers?
The formula related to frequency and wavelength is Wavelength = 300000000 / Frequency (f) Wavelength = 300000000 / 30000000000 Wavelength = 1/100 Wavelength = 0.01 meter OR Wavelength = 10 milimeter
How is the frequency of a wave related toits wave length?
Frequency of the a wave equals its velocity divided by its wavelength.
What is the frequency of an EM wave that has a wavelength of 1 mm?
If only there were an equation that related the speed of EM waves, wavelength, and frequency... c=(wavelength)(frequency) Make sure and keep your units straight.
How does one measure the wavelength of a longitudinal wave?
Okay, it is very simple. The formula is: the velocity is equal to the product of the frequency and wavelength. v= fλ the lambda is the wavelength. Using basic arithmetic, you can rearrange the equation to : λ= v/f There you go. That's how to find the wavelength
Why does a light of low wavelength have high frequency?
We must keep in memory the following formula connecting wave velocity, wave frequency and wavelength. Namely, c = v l v is nu - frequency and l - lambda the wavelength Since for a constant value of wave velocity, v and l are inversely related. So as wavelength is low, then its frequency goes higher.
