I will try to answer it as I just taught my son who is 11. This is not scientific but it's ok I think.
The first thing is not to think of frequency as how often it occurs but instead how high the wave has to go to reach its mark. Like a roller coaster, when you go up the big hill its slow but long and high...then you go down and you slowly go up again to the high and back down. When you get to the short little hills that may have 6 or seven in a row they are fast and quickly one after another.
This is how waves work. When a low frequency hits its mark, it hits fast and unrelenting and penetrates the object (like an xrays) but it has a short wavelength. When a high frequency signal hits its target it will hit strongly on the surface but not penetrate because its not pounding away at its target (the reason FM radio signal doesn't cause cancer) and it also has a longer longer wavelength.
Fm Radio broadcasts in MHz....lower frequency, shorter wave length, higher energy.
Am Radio broadcasts in Khz.....higher frequency, longer wave length, lower energy.
For this reason. Fm radio wont make it too far out of an are but will get good reception inside a house or city. Am stations travel further but you lose the station when ever its hits something....like buildings.
Hope these examples help...unless I'm wrong in which case my chem teacher will hate me and you are totally lost.
if wave amplitudes are equal ,will high frequency waves carry more or less energy than low frequency waves
They're not comparable. -- Cosmic rays are high-energy charged particles moving at less than the speed of light, with mass and kinetic energy but no characteristic frequency or wavelength. -- Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation.
the lowest frequency Lester was here
The answer to this question has to do with the nature of waves. A high frequency sound has a greater wavelength than a low frequency sound. A high pitched noise wave looks a bit like NNNNNNNN, whereas a low sound looks a bit more like _____. Because the high pitched noise has a "taller" wave, so to speak, it is more easily interrupted, and cannot, therefore, travel as far as a low sound. sounds with higher frequency have more energy and the energy decreases along with distance and so is the frequency........so a sound with high frequency can travel farther due to its more amplitude,wavelength and intensity. The above is in error. A high frq. sound has a shorter (time is the abcissa(x) axis) wavelength than a lower freq. sound. Tallness or amplitude is not to be confused with wavelength. Amplitude is normally the ordinate or y axis and is a measure of magnitude. Energy content is a factor of both wavelength and amplitude. Lower frequency waves commonly travel better through matter as a result of the atomic spacing of the molecules in the medium( air, solid matter etc.). i.e. Think of dominoes falling.

if wave amplitudes are equal ,will high frequency waves carry more or less energy than low frequency waves
High frequency waves will have more energy than low-frequency waves. This is because energy is directly proportional to frequency in waves - the higher the frequency, the higher the energy.
High frequency electromagnetic waves have more energy than low frequency waves. This is because the energy of an electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency: E=hf, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is frequency.
A high frequency wave typically requires more energy than a low frequency wave because it carries more oscillations per unit of time. This means that high frequency waves have a higher energy content due to the faster rate of vibration.
No, the energy of a wave is determined by its amplitude, not its frequency. In terms of electromagnetic waves, both high and low frequency waves can carry the same amount of energy per photon. The perceived intensity of a wave is linked to its amplitude, not its frequency.
Your question makes no sense.
when the frequency is low , energy will be obviously low. To increase the energy of the signal we need to increase the frequency. This is achieved by multiplying the message signal with the carrier signal (with high frequency).
high pitch is high frequency, low pitch is low frequency
When the energy of a wave increases, the frequency of the wave also increases. This is because frequency is directly proportional to energy in a wave. High frequency waves have more energy than low frequency waves.
No, a low pitched note has a low frequency. The pitch of a sound is determined by its frequency, with low frequency sounds corresponding to low pitched notes and high frequency sounds corresponding to high pitched notes.
A high frequency wave has more oscillations per unit of time, resulting in shorter wavelength and higher energy. In contrast, a low frequency wave has fewer oscillations per unit of time, resulting in longer wavelength and lower energy. Examples of high frequency waves include visible light and X-rays, while examples of low frequency waves include radio waves and sound waves.
