Among the following four spectral regions, in which of them, the photon has the highest energy in?(a) Infrared(b) Violet(c) Red(d) BlueThis question was addressed to me in a job interview.I'd like to ask this question from Particle Nature of Light : The Photon in section Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Right choice is (B) Violet

Easiest EXPLANATION: According to the equation:

E = \(\frac {hc}{\LAMBDA }\)

Energy is inversely proportional to wavelength. Since a photon in the violet region has the LEAST wavelength, it implies, that photon has the HIGHEST energy.
