wavelength : wavelength is the distance from crest of one wave to the crest of next
frequency : the number of waves that passes a given point in one second
energy : the amplitude or intensity of a wave
energy and frequency is directly proportional to each other when energy is high frequency is also high
wavelength and frequency or energy is inversly proportional to each other when wavelength is high frequency or energy is low
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.
No. For two reasons:
1- By amount of radiation, you mean Intensity, which is a variable for number of photons. So you can't increase intensity with just one photon;
2- The energy of a photon only depends on its frequency or wavelength.
The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency. The frequency (and therefore also the energy) are inversely proportional to the wavelength (for any wave, frequency x wavelength = speed of the wave).
No. Photons in free space tend to all go the speed of light. The Quantum packages' frequency determines its' energy level.
The larger the wavelength of the photon, the lower the energy.
Photon's energy E=hf=hc/w where w is the wavelength, w=hc/E or wE=hc= constant = .2E-24 Joule meters.
It's frequency.
Yes
The energy of a photon is directly proportional to the frequency. Since the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength, the energy, too, is inversely proportional to the wavelength.
The energy per photon is directly proportional to the frequency; the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength (since frequency x wavelength = speed of light, which is constant); thus, the energy per photon is inversely proportional to the wavelength.
You need to know the photon's frequency or wavelength. If you know the wavelength, divide the speed of light by the photon's wavelength to find the frequency. Once you have the photon's frequency, multiply that by Planck's Konstant. The product is the photon's energy.
... frequency of the electromagnetic radiation of which the photon is a particle.
The energy of a photon is inversely propotional to its wavelength. The wavelength of a blue photon is less than that of a red photon. That makes the blue photon more energetic. Or how about this? The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency. The frequency of a blue photon is greater than that of a red photon. That makes the blue photon more energetic. The wavelength of a photon is inversely proportional to its frequency. The the longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency. The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency.

The energy of one photon is given by its frequency X planck's constant Its frequency is given by the speed of light divided by the wavelength.

The energy increases as the frequency increases.The frequency decreases as the wavelength increases.So, the energy decreases as the wavelength increases.
Twice the energy means twice the frequency, and therefore half the wavelength.

for a photon energy= Planks Constant * frequency and frequency= speed of light/wavelength so E= hc/(wavelength) h= 6.63E-34 J/s c= 3E8 m/s Plug n' Chug
Remember that for any wave, wavelength x frequency = speed (of the wave). So, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases. Also, since the energy of a photon is proportional to the frequency, the energy will decrease as well in this case.
The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher its energy.
