Concept introduction:'
Planks equation says energy is proportional to frequency of light and inversely proportional to wavelength.
Explanation:
Given that, ultraviolet radiation is dangerous because it has a high enough energy to damage skin cells.
We have to find, relation of energy, frequency, wavelength.
According to the question,
According to Planks equation energy is proportional to frequency of light and inversely proportional to wavelength. Therefore, shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency and the higher the energy.
Final Answer:
D) The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency and the higher the energy.
