Upon which one of the following parameters does the energy of a photon depend?
A)mass
B)amplitude
C)polarization
D)frequency
E)phase relationships

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency, as expressed by the equation E=hf, where E is the energy of the photon, h is Planck's constant, and f is the frequency of the photon. Therefore, the correct choice is D, frequency. Mass, amplitude, polarization, and phase relationships do not affect the energy of a photon.
