Question

Upon which one of the following parameters does the energy of a photon depend? A. Mass B. Amplitude C. Polarization D. Frequency E. Phase relationships

Answer 1

D. Frequency

Step-by-step explanation:

Energy of photon is directly proportional to the frequency of the photon.

E = Energy carried by each photon

f = frequency of each photon

h = plank's constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J-s

The formula for energy of photon can be given as

E α f

Adding the proportionality constant or plank's constant, we get

E = h f
