Energy = Plank's constant times the speed of light divided by the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation in question.

as a formula:

E = h * c / lambda

E - energy

h - Plank's constant

c - speed of light

lambda - wavelength

What is the relation between medical and electromagnetic?

There is no relation between medical uses of electromagnetic energy and alternative devices. There are no available scientific evidence to support claims in treating any diseases with the use of electromagnetism.


Which wavelengths carry the most energy?

Shorter wavelengths carry more energy. In the electromagnetic spectrum, gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths and therefore the most energy.


What is the formula that shows the relation between energy and wavelength of electromagnetic radiation?

E = hc/l


Does wavelengths that make up the electromagnetic spectrum each have the same amount of energy true?

No, wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum do not each have the same amount of energy. The energy of a wave is directly proportional to its frequency, so shorter wavelengths (higher frequency) have more energy than longer wavelengths (lower frequency).


What is the relationship between wavelength and the penetrating power of an electromagnetic wave?

Shorter wavelengths have higher energy and greater penetrating power in electromagnetic waves. This is why X-rays, with shorter wavelengths, can penetrate tissues more effectively than radio waves, which have longer wavelengths.


What form of energy has the lowest wavelengths?

Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths among all forms of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum.


What electromagnetic energy carries the most energy?

Gamma rays carry the most energy among electromagnetic waves. They have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum.


How do the wavelengths of electromagnetic energy absorbed by materials on Earth compare to the wavelengths radiated by materials on earth?

Materials on Earth typically absorb shorter wavelengths of electromagnetic energy compared to the wavelengths they radiate. This is because materials absorb higher energy radiation (such as ultraviolet or visible light) and emit lower energy radiation (such as infrared or thermal radiation).


What Component of electromagnetic waves that does vary?

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.


When describing electromagnetic radiation there is a(n) relationship between wavelength and frequency and the greater the frequency the energy the electromagnetic radiation has. A) direct less B) dire?

The relationship between wavelength and frequency in electromagnetic radiation is inverse - shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies. Higher frequency radiation carries more energy, as energy is directly proportional to frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.


Which wavelength of electromagnetic radiation carries the most energy?

Gamma rays have the highest energy of all electromagnetic radiation wavelengths.


What electromagnetic wave has the most energy?

Gamma rays have the most energy among all electromagnetic waves. They have the shortest wavelengths and highest frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum.
