Are light wave similar to raidiant energy?

Yes, light waves are a form of radiant energy. Radiant energy refers to any form of energy that travels in waves through space, and light waves are a specific type of electromagnetic wave that are visible to the human eye.


What waves has radiant heat rays?

Radiant heat rays are a type of electromagnetic wave that fall within the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. They have longer wavelengths than visible light, and they can be emitted by any object with a temperature above absolute zero.


What is dual nature of radiant energy?

The dual nature of radiant energy refers to its manifestation as both particles (photons) and waves. This duality is described by quantum mechanics, where light can exhibit particle-like behavior and wave-like behavior depending on the context of the experiment. This phenomenon is known as wave-particle duality.


What determines the amount of radiant energy that can be carried by an electro magnetic wave?

The amount of radiant energy carried by an electromagnetic wave is determined by the wave's frequency. Higher frequency waves carry more energy compared to lower frequency waves. This relationship is described by Planck's equation, E=hf, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is the frequency of the wave.


Does radiant energy increase or decrease as the frequency of an electromagnetic wave increases?

As the frequency of an electromagnetic wave increases, the energy of the wave increases. This is because energy is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave according to Planck's equation (E=hf), where h is Planck's constant.
