Question

If the frequency of a light ray is known, its energy can be calculated. What are the symbol and the name of the constant which must be used in this calculation? What is its value? Given a photon with frequency = 4.472 times 10^14 s^-1, what is its energy? If a different photon has frequency = 2.701 times 10^14 s^-1, will its energy be higher or lower than in 5b? How can you tell? If 5b describes a photon of red light, is the frequency of violet light higher or lower? Is the energy of violet light greater or less than that of red light? (Circle your cho.ces).
