The shorter/ smaller the wavelength and greater frequency, the more energy.

So as frequency increases so does energy.
Explanation:
The above formula describes the energy per photon of a specific light wave. h refers to Planck's Constant
Frequency and Wavelength are indirectly related to one another, meaning that as one increases the other will decrease and vise versa. Their relationship follows the formula
- c = Light's Speed (
#300,000,000 m/s# ) - f = Frequency in Hertz
#(1/s)# #lambda# = Wavelength in meters
