Answer: High energy and Low wavelength.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given an electromagnetic wave having high energy, so by using Planck's equation:


E=h\\u

where, E = energy

h = Planck's constant


\\u = frequency

here, Energy and frequency follow direct relation and hence high frequency means high energy.

and
\\u=(c)/(\lambda)


\\u = Frequency

c = speed of light


\lambda = wavelength

Here, the frequency is inversely related to the wavelength, hence high frequency means low frequency.
