Chapter 1, Problem 1A.5E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The following types of photons of electromagnetic radiation have to be arranged in order of increasing energy.

  γ rays, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, microwaves, X- rays

Concept Introduction:

The relationship between wavelength, frequency and speed of light is given below.

  λ×ν=c

Where, λ is the wavelength, ν is the frequency of radiation and c is the speed of light.

Energy of a photon can be expressed mathematically as given below.

  E=hν=hcλ

The wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation and their corresponding frequencies are given below in the table.
