Question

The nature of light is rather unique: It acts like both a particle (called a photon) and a wave that can propagate energy even through empty space.

Navigate to the interactive figure in Section 2 of this animation, as shown below, to see how changing the amplitude, wavelength, speed, and frequency of a light wave affects its properties.

A.The frequency of the light would decrease.B.The speed of the light would increase.C.The energy of the light would decrease.D.The energy of the light would increase.E.The frequency of the light would increase.F.The speed of the light would decrease.G.The amplitude of the wave would decrease.H.The amplitude of the wave would increase.

Light as a Wave, Light as a Photon Explanation Norton AstroTours In order to understand how all these factors are related, let's see how changing the amplitude, wavelength, speed, or frequency of this wave affects the other characteristics. 4 wavelength speed 3x10 m/s amplitude 4 frequency: 18 Experiment by clicking the up and down arrows Section 2 3

Explanation / Answer

Ans) a)The frequency of the light would decrease

b) The energy of the light would decrease

amplitude of the wave donot change with wavelength, and the energy of a wave is related with its wavelength, shorter the wavelength higher the energy.
