The radiation from the brightest or highest-power source carries the maximum energy.
The shorter the wavelength of the radiation is, the more energy each photon carries.
But you can easily radiate a lot more energy in long-wave radiation than in shorter-wave
radiation, by simply radiating more photons.
Example:
Energy in 1 red-light photon
compared to
energy of 1 radio-wave photon at 2.5 GHz . . . . . 160,000 times as much energy
However . . .
Energy radiated inside a microwave oven at 2.5 GHz . . . 1,200 to 2,000 joules every second
Energy radiated by a single red LED . . . . . 0.05 joule every second

Which radiation carries maximum energy?
Gamma rays
What is the transfer of energy in the form of rays?
Radiation.
What energy is ultraviolet rays?
Ultraviolet rays, or radiation, is a type of electromagnetic waves.
Which type of light carries the most energy?
Gamma Rays
What is the transfer of energy n the form of rays or waves?
radiation
Which radiation carries maximum energy?
Gamma rays
Which wavelenth of electromagnetic radiation carries the most energy?
Gamma rays.
What wavelength of electromagnetic radiation carries the most energy?
Gamma rays have the most energy per photon.
What Kind of energy does heat have?
Heat is electromagnetic radiation, and carries energy exactly as radio, light, X-rays, etc. do.
What is the transfer of energy in the form of rays?
Radiation.
What has more energy ultraviolet rays or gamma rays?
On the elecromagnetic spectrum, gamma rays have much more energy
What waves is shorter than x rays and gamma rays?
By definition, gamma is the highest classification of electromagnetic radiation. The highest energy rays are from cosmic radiation and are called "very high-energy gamma rays."
What energy is ultraviolet rays?
Ultraviolet rays, or radiation, is a type of electromagnetic waves.
On the EMS which form of radiation has highest amount of energy?
Cosmic Rays which has more energy than Gamma rays
Which type of light carries the most energy?
Gamma Rays
Are x-rays energy the same as gamma rays?
Since x-rays have lower frequencies than gamma rays have, each x-ray photon carries less energy than a gamma ray photon carries. Both carry enough energy to damage living cells.
The transfer of energy in the form of rays or waves is known as what?
Radiation.
