alpha2cen Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Simple. Let's think it over. Why high frequency wave is high energy state than lower one? Everyone know this phenomena well. But how to we describe it exactly? Don't use E=hv =h / lamda equation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cuthber Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I thought it over. I waved. Some kid who was passing waved back, which was nice. What were you hoping to achieve from this thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Skeptic Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Why do faster moving objects have more kinetic energy, don't use the equations for kinetic energy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Cuthber Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 What's the difference between a duck? "Everyone know this phenomena well." But please don't use the answer that "its leg are both the same". OK, That's probably enough piss taking. Alpha, it is clear that you did not express the question clearly. What did you mean?

alpha2cen Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 I mean" Why short wave has high energy than long wave?" How to explain this? Energy ====> potential energy, kinetic energy, wave energy, ... Can we describe the wave energy as other energy or other mathematical forms?

Mr Skeptic Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 OK, look at the wiki page for simple harmonic motion: http://en.wikipedia....harmonic_motion We have: And for a wave we have wavelength = speed / f. [Random gibberish alert!] Now suppose we set amplitude = wavelength. Maybe something interesting happens? [/random gibberish] Or you could use these equations, if you don't consider that cheating: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Broglie_wavelength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
