3 A wave with which of the following frequencies would have the shortest wavelength?
So far in the electromagnetic spectrum we have gamma radiations having the shortest wavelength. In case of de Broglie's waves the matter waves of massive objects such as an iron ball moving at a faster rate would have the shortest wavelength which could not be measured even. So we declare that only light particles such as electron, proton, neutron or alpha particle, deutron moving at higher speeds would act as a wave with shortest wavelength.
Does all matter have frequency?
Yes, all matter has a characteristic frequency at which it vibrates. This frequency is determined by the energy levels of the particles that make up the matter. In quantum mechanics, this frequency is associated with the particles' wave functions.
What are some characteristics of wave?
Waves are a disturbance or variation that travels through a medium. They transport energy without transporting matter. Waves can exhibit properties such as amplitude, frequency, wavelength, and speed.
What are the characteristics of all waves?
Speed, amplitude, and wavelength/frequency.
Which of the following is an effect of increasing the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave?
Increasing the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave will decrease its frequency and energy. This change can affect how the wave interacts with matter, such as increased penetration through obstacles or reduced absorption by certain materials.
What does increasing the frequency of X or Gamma ray do to its wavelength?
Increasing the frequency of X or gamma rays decreases their wavelength. This is known as the inverse relationship between frequency and wavelength, where higher frequency corresponds to shorter wavelength and vice versa.
Why won't a very bright beam of red light impart more energy to an electron than a feeble beam of violet light?
Ok, so this goes back to the inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency ( energy). As wavelength increases , frequency decreases, the relationship between the two is a inverse relationship. the Red light, wavelength of approx. 700 m^-7 , has a greater wavelength then of the blue light, 400m ^-7. This means , due to frequency and wavelength having an inverse relationship, blue light has a greater frequency (energy) than red light. This is why blue light, no matter how dim, will impart more energy to an electron , then a red light would.

How do waves in the electromagnetic spectrum differ?
Waves in the electromagnetic spectrum differ in their wavelength and frequency. From longest to shortest wavelength, the spectrum includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Each type of wave has unique properties and interacting with matter in different ways.
What happens to an electromagnetic wave's frequency as it's wavelength decreases?
The product of (wavelength) x (frequency) of any wave phenomenon is alwaysthe same number ... the speed of the wave. So if wavelength changes, thenfrequency must change by exactly the same factor in the opposite direction,in order for their product to remain constant.
When matter absorbs a photon what is the relationship between the energy of the matter before and after the absorpion and the frequency and the wavelength of the radiation absorbed?
When matter absorbs a photon, the energy of the matter increases by an amount equal to the energy of the absorbed photon. The frequency and wavelength of the absorbed radiation depend on the energy of the photon and are inversely related - higher energy photons have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths.
Definition of Fundamental frequency and waves?
The fundamental frequency of a wave is the lowest frequency (longest wavelength) that can be used to define its period. The easiest way to understand it is via a musical analogy: The fundamental frequency is the root tone of the overtone or harmonic series.
Light of different colors is different in and?
Light of different colors is different in wavelength and energy. Each color corresponds to a specific range of wavelengths and energy levels, which determines how the light interacts with matter and affects our perception of color.
