What happens to the frequency and energy carried by an electromagnetic wave as the wavelength decreases?
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.
What happens to a wave as it's wavelength gets shorter?
As the wavelength of a wave gets shorter, its frequency increases and its energy level also increases. Shorter wavelengths are associated with higher energy electromagnetic radiation, such as X-rays and gamma rays.
Is there a ray with shorter wavelength than the gamma ray?
Cosmic rays have shorter wavelength than gamma rays
As the wavelength of a wave increases on the electromagnetic spectrum what happens to the energy of the wave?
As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease.
In the electromagnetic spectrum is determined by its wavelength?
No, the position of a wave in the electromagnetic spectrum is determined by its wavelength and frequency. The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from radio waves with longer wavelengths to gamma rays with shorter wavelengths.

When frequency increases what happens to wavelength?
The wavelength gets shorter. If the propagation speed remains the same, the wavelength (L) decreases by the inverse of the frequency f. For electromagnetic waves c = fL is a constant.
Is there a ray with shorter wavelength than the gamma ray?
Cosmic rays have shorter wavelength than gamma rays
As the wavelength of a wave increases on the electromagnetic spectrum what happens to the energy of the wave?
As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease.
When you push down on a string to make it shorter what happens to the wavelength?
The wavelength gets shorter.
Will people be affected by electromagnetic radiation?
that depends on the wavelength of the radiation. the shorter the wavelength the more damage it can do.
In the electromagnetic spectrum is determined by its wavelength?
No, the position of a wave in the electromagnetic spectrum is determined by its wavelength and frequency. The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from radio waves with longer wavelengths to gamma rays with shorter wavelengths.
In vacuum the shorter the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is the?
In a vacuum, the speed of light is constant, so shorter wavelengths of electromagnetic waves have higher frequencies. This relationship is described by the equation speed = frequency x wavelength.
Is this true or false the shorter the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation the more energy carried by the wave?
True. Shorter wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation correspond to higher energy levels. This relationship is described by the equation E=hf, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is frequency. The higher the frequency (related to wavelength inversely), the more energy the wave carries.
A wave of electromagnetic radiation has more energy if it?
has a higher frequency. Energy is directly proportional to frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.
What wavelength of electromagnetic radiation carries the most energy?
Gamma rays have the most energy per photon.
