Energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength of a wave. Which would have the GREATEST energy? A wave with a wavelength of ______ meters. A) 5 B) 10 C) 15 D) 20

Respuesta :

AN inverse proportion between variables x and y, where y is inversely proportional to x is shown as:
y = k/x, where k is a constant. Thus,
E = k / λ, where E is the energy and λ is the wavelength. In an inverse proportion, when one variable increases, the other decreases. The maximum energy will be at the minimum wavelength, so the answer is A.

The answer is A (5).
