Answer:

As frequency increases, energy increases

Step-by-step explanation:

The energy of electromagnetic waves increases as frequency increases. It is the wavelength that decreases when the energy of electromagnetic waves increases.

We can say a direct relationship exists between frequency and energy of electromagnetic waves.

The high energy waves in an electromagnetic spectrum are x-rays, ultraviolet rays etc. These waves also have a high frequency.

Frequency is the number of waves that passes a particular point per seconds. The more the frequency or the number of waves passing through, the more energy it is able to produce and release.
