MCQ
A photon will have less energy, if its:
  • A
    Amplitude is higher
  • B
    Frequency is higher
  • C
    Wavelength is longer
  • D
    Wavelength is shorter

Answer

  1. Wavelength is longer

Explanation:

Energy of photon $=\frac{\text{hc}}{\gamma}$

Hence, a photon with longer wavelenght will carry less energy.
