Why energy is inversely proportional to wavelength? Explain it

Open in App
Solution

photonenergy,E=hv;vfrequency

E=hcλ

Eα1λ

So basically in above formula as we can see photon energy is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to wavelength.

photons are basically the energy packets which occur due to electron being transit from higher to lower level.
