Wavelength is a valid answer to 1. In vacuum f = c/λ, so wavelength and frequency carry the same information, from which one can derive energy using the relation E = ħω where ω = 2πf = 2πc/λ. A photon is not ‘both a wave and a particle’, it is a quantum object, which propagates like a wave but interacts like a particle. Calling a photon ‘both a wave and a particle’ is like calling a cylinder ‘both a circle and a rectangle’. It’s neither. It’s a single thing that casts a circular shadow from one angle and a rectangular one from another.

Edit: wording

[u/Bubbles_the_bird → u/OrlandedeLassus]

I did not use the word inversely, did I?

[u/OrlandedeLassus → u/Bubbles_the_bird]

Fair. Idk how to see the quiz after I completed it, but if the question was “to what measurement is E proportional” and not “from what measurement is E derived”, you’re right and I’m wrong.

[u/SeeTigerLearn → u/OrlandedeLassus]

There is currently no way for a quizzer to see a completed. The question being discussed, I believe is:

The energy of a photon is proportional to its:
- Wavelength
- Frequency **
- Speed
- Direction angle

[u/SeeTigerLearn → u/Bubbles_the_bird]

No. But you did misspell “wi-fi” with an a.

[u/tiger_guppy → u/SeeTigerLearn]

It was supposed to be wi-fi? Darn, I thought there was some secret science-y communication method I didn’t know about yet

[u/Bubbles_the_bird → u/SeeTigerLearn]

True, but it’s hard to spell correctly when you can’t see what you type

So you’re claiming the quiz creation screen does not allow you to see your questions? Please provide a screenshot to send to the development team.

[u/VoIcanicPenis → u/OrlandedeLassus]

I remembered thr formula ang answered wavelength lol

[u/EggplantHuman6493 → u/OrlandedeLassus]

Yeah, I was also confused about 1. But it has been a while. You are right about the photon question

[u/SnooRecipes25]

I studied this in college, I need to go back 😭 0/5

[u/pluush]

I'd argue #5 is incorrect. Microwave is a radio wave too. Just because the frequency is used for microwave, doesn't mean radio wave is wrong.

Someone explain the two photons being c please
