Question

question 44 (1 point)
short wavelength radiation carries less energy than the long wavelength radiation.

1. true
2. false

Explanation:

In physics (a subfield of Natural Science), the energy of electromagnetic radiation is related to its wavelength by the formula \( E = h
u=\frac{hc}{\lambda} \), where \( E \) is energy, \( h \) is Planck's constant, \(
u \) is frequency, \( c \) is the speed of light, and \( \lambda \) is wavelength. Since energy and wavelength are inversely proportional, short - wavelength radiation has higher energy than long - wavelength radiation. So the statement "Short wavelength radiation carries less energy than the long wavelength radiation" is false.

Answer:

1. False
