Which of the following statements correctly compares the frequency and energy of infrared waves and ultraviolet waves?

A
Infrared waves have lower frequencies than ultraviolet waves. Since frequency and energy are directly proportional, infrared waves also have less energy than ultraviolet waves.

B
Infrared waves have lower frequencies than ultraviolet waves. Since frequency and energy are inversely proportional, infrared waves also have more energy than ultraviolet waves.

C
Infrared waves have higher frequencies than ultraviolet waves. Since frequency and energy are directly proportional, infrared waves also have more energy than ultraviolet waves.

D
Infrared waves have higher frequencies than ultraviolet waves. Since frequency and energy are inversely proportional, infrared waves also have less energy than ultraviolet waves.

Infrared waves have lower frequencies than ultraviolet waves. Since frequency and energy are directly proportional, infrared waves also have less energy than ultraviolet waves.  (A)

Answer:

The Correct Answer is A

Explanation:

Infrared waves

  • Infrared waves are the Infrared radiation is what we like to describe as a heat.
  • We can not see the Infrared waves but we can sense the Infrared waves.
  • Infrared waves are often used in restaurants to heat food.

Ultraviolet waves

  • Ultraviolet waves have a number of uses in our day to day life.
  • Ultraviolet waves are used in forgery detection.
  • Ultraviolet waves can also cause tanned on our body's skin.
