the lowest frequency Lester was here
If it is a mechanical wave, then the lower amplitude waves would have less energy. If you are talking about electromagnetic waves, then higher frequency waves (shorter wavelength) have more energy, and lower frequency waves have less energy.
It is both. Since the electromagnetic waves have energy, they also have mass, due to the matter/energy equivalence. Incorrect. Electromagnetic waves have NO mass. Simply because something -- be it heat or a static magnetic field or an EM wave -- has energy, that does NOT mean it has mass. The equivalence of mass and energy is simply a statement that mass is one form of energy -- just like the others I mentioned. The statement, "Mass is a form of energy, therefore all other forms of energy also have mass" is as silly as saying, "A Jew is a type of human being, therefore all other types of human beings are also Jews."
In general, higher frequency waves carry more energy than waves of lower frequency if their amplitudes are equal. This is absolutely true of electromagnetic waves, and can probably be most easily demonstrated there.
So is the "heat" radiant heat, an electromagnetic wave? (Heat is used to mean many things.) Electricity gets turned into the electromagnetic infrared (heat).
Most waves all require something with mass to be transmitted. However, electromagnetic waves carry energy in the form of photons, which are massless. Since photons are massless, they are not considered matter, but they do indeed carry energy. (This is why something feels warmer when the sun shines on it.) Electromagnetic waves range anywhere from radio waves, microwaves, and the common visible light waves, to x rays, and gamma rays.
I would call it an electromagnetic wave, or electromagnetic energy.

The energy of an electromagnetic wave depends on its frequency.
As the frequency of an electromagnetic wave increases, the energy of the wave also increases. This is because the energy of an electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency, according to Planck's equation (E = hf), where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is frequency.
The wave is called an electromagnetic wave.
The energy of an electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency. The energy of a wave with a frequency of 8 times 10 Hz would be 8 times the energy of a wave with a frequency of 1 Hz.
The energy of an electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency. The energy of a wave with a frequency of 3x10^9 Hz would be E = hf, where h is Planck's constant (6.63x10^-34 J.s). Calculating this would give you the energy of the wave.
Increasing the intensity of an electromagnetic wave will result in higher energy and amplitude of the wave, which can lead to increased potential for heating, radiation exposure, and potential health risks. Additionally, at very high intensities, electromagnetic waves can cause damage to living tissues and electronic devices.
As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave decreases, the frequency of the wave increases. This means that the energy carried by the wave also increases, as energy is directly proportional to frequency. Therefore, shorter wavelength corresponds to higher frequency and energy in an electromagnetic wave.
No, an electromagnetic wave is NOT a compressional wave. An electromagnetic wave is best described as a transverse wave. Remember that in a compressional wave, the energy moves parallel to the medium of the wave, while in a transverse wave, the energy moves perpendicular to the medium.
The energy of an electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency. This means that as the frequency of the wave increases, so does its energy.
The energy of an electromagnetic wave depends on its frequency. The energy is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave, meaning higher frequency waves have more energy.
