Question

Is energy directly proportional to frequency?


Open in App
Solution

Explanation:

  1. The energy per photon is directly related to the photon's electromagnetic frequency, or E=ωhf, for a photon in a vacuum. Where, E= Energy, h= Planck's constant, ω= Angular speed, and f= frequency.
  2. Here's a look at how the two traditional characteristics of light are related: energy and frequency.

Hence, the energy is directly proportional to the frequency.
