Visible light has a frequency range between 7 x 10 to the 4th power and 4 x 10 to the 4th power. Which frequency of light would have the most energy?

Those numbers are very inaccurate for visible light. But it doesn't matter. The rule is that the energy
carried by a photon of any electromagnetic radiation is proportional to its frequency.
The higher the frequency, the more energy it carries.

What has more energy a visible light or infrared light?
Visible light. It has a higher frequency so more energy.
Compare the frequency and energy of infrared rays to the frequency and energy of visible light?
Infrared waves are shorter than radio waves and longer than visible light waves.
In visible light color is an indication of?
Wavelength, Frequency, or Photon Energy
Which color of the visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum has the lowest frequency and the lowest energy?
Red light.
What is higher in frequency and has shorter wavelengths than visible light?
We know that ultra-violet light, X-rays and gamma rays have higher energy (higher frequency and shorter wavelengths) than visible light.
Compare the frequency and energy of infrared waves to the frequency energy of the visible light?
Visible light has a higher frequency, a higher energy per photon, and a smaller wavelength, compared to infrared.
What has more energy a visible light or infrared light?
Visible light. It has a higher frequency so more energy.
What is the difference between light energy and radio wave energy?
Visible light and radio waves are both two types of the same radiation (electromagnetic waves). The difference is that visible light has a higher frequency; a higher energy per photon; and a smaller wavelength.
Compare the frequency and energy of infrared rays to the frequency and energy of visible light?
Infrared waves are shorter than radio waves and longer than visible light waves.
Which has higher frequencies microwaves or visible lights?
Visible light has shorter wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves, which might be considered the highest energy radio waves, have a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than visible light.
In visible light color is an indication of?
Wavelength, Frequency, or Photon Energy
True or false visibe light with the shortest wavelength is red light?
No, red is the longest wavelength of visible light, with the lowest frequency and the least energy. Violet light has the shortest wavelenght, with the highest frequency and the most energy (of visible light).
Does visible light have a higher frequency than gamma rays?
No, visible light has a lower frequency than gamma rays. Gamma rays are the highest frequency of electromagnetic energy. They are above X-rays.
What type of energy wave is lowest in energy?
Red, because it has the lowest frequency in visible light
What color has the lowest energy?
Red, because it has the lowest frequency in visible light
Which color of the visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum has the lowest frequency and the lowest energy?
Red light.
What is higher in frequency and has shorter wavelengths than visible light?
We know that ultra-violet light, X-rays and gamma rays have higher energy (higher frequency and shorter wavelengths) than visible light.
