Because the product of (wavelength) multiplied by (frequency) is always the
speed of the wave, and all electromagnetic waves have the same speed.
So if you make one larger, the other one must become smaller in inverse
proportion.
If that answer isn't quite enough, another contributor has stopped by, and
he's convinced that the following fact will clear everything up immediately:
Answer2: The real constant of Quantum Theory is E= hc/r = zQ2c/r the constant is E= 1.25 uevm/r.
Yes, light is electromagnetic waves. The longest wavelengths have the lowest frequencies and the lowest temperatures. The shortest wavelengths have the highest frequencies and the highest temperatures.
Radio waves.
The meaning of a high frequency wave is a shorter wavelength.For electromagnetic waves in general (including light):* At greater frequencies, you get shorter wavelengths.* At greater frequencies, you get more energy per photon.
Ultraviolet light extends for quite a ways up the electromagnetic spectrum after visible violet ends. Its frequencies are higher. Wavelengths from 400nm to 50nm covering 4 groups of UV.
ELF radio waves or extremely low frequency radio waves. These may have frequencies below 1 Hz in some cases!
As light waves move from red to violet along the visible spectrum, their wavelengths decrease and their frequencies increase. Red light has longer wavelengths and lower frequencies, while violet light has shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies. This shift in wavelength is perceived as a shift in color by our eyes.
No, waves with shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies. The wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency, meaning shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies.
As wavelength increases, the distance between two consecutive peaks of a wave also increases. This means that fewer waves pass a fixed point in a given amount of time, resulting in a decrease in frequency. In the electromagnetic spectrum, longer wavelengths correspond to lower frequencies, such as radio waves, while shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies, like gamma rays.
Sound waves have wavelengths and frequencies.
Infrared waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths compared to radio waves. Infrared waves typically have frequencies ranging from 300 GHz to 400 THz and wavelengths between 1 mm to 750 nm, while radio waves have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths.
Gamma waves and radio waves are both forms of electromagnetic radiation that travel at the speed of light and can carry energy and information. They both have specific frequencies and wavelengths within the electromagnetic spectrum, with gamma waves having the highest frequencies and shortest wavelengths, and radio waves having lower frequencies and longer wavelengths.
The light waves are redshifted, meaning their wavelengths increase and their frequencies decrease. This effect is due to the Doppler effect, where the motion of the object causes a shift in the observed wavelength of light.
No, waves with longer wavelengths have lower frequencies and waves with shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies. Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength in a wave.
Yes, light is electromagnetic waves. The longest wavelengths have the lowest frequencies and the lowest temperatures. The shortest wavelengths have the highest frequencies and the highest temperatures.
I'll answer your question for a variety of waves. For sound waves, higher pitch sounds have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For water waves, the slowest moving waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. For seismic waves, S waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than P waves. For electromagnetic waves, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than, say, visible light. For quantum mechanical, de Broglie waves, particles with classical analogues of momentum have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths than individual particles.
The frequency of electromagnetic waves varies, which is determined by the energy of the wave. Higher energy waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths, while lower energy waves have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths.
wavelengths. Sound waves with higher frequencies have shorter wavelengths, while sound waves with lower frequencies have longer wavelengths. This relationship is governed by the equation: wavelength = speed of sound / frequency.
