QUESTION:

List these three types of radiation - infrared, X-ray, and radio waves - in order of:

(a) increasing energy per photon

(b) increasing frequency

(c) increasing wavelength

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

According to Einstein, the amount of energy ( E ) in a light is dependent on its

frequency ( n ) according to the following equation:

E = hv

Where,  h = Planck’s constant, \(v=\frac{c}{\lambda}\),

where \(\lambda\) is the wavelength of light and c is the velocity of light

Therefore, \(E=h c / \lambda\)

The electromagnetic spectrum is given below
