How does energy relate to wavelength and frequency?
2 Answers
Energy increases as the wavength decreases and the frequency increases.
Explanation:
Long wavelength, low frequency waves, such as radio wave seas are thought to be harmless. They don’t carry much energy and are therefore considered safe by most people.
As the wavelength decreases and frequency increases, the energy increases - for example X-rays and gamma radiation. We know those are harmful to humans.

Explanation:
This relates to energy of a photon. We know the relationship between wavelength (represented by
The relation in case of photon is given by
