What characteristic of light quanta (photons) is directly proportional to their frequency?
**Photon energy** E = h f = h c/λ, momentum p = h/λ = E/c, power P = N E/t, N number of photons per second, wavelength λ = h c/E, for photon momentum 1.5×10⁻²⁷ kg·m/s frequency f = p c/h? Actually E = p c, f = E/h = p c/h =1.5×10⁻²⁷×3×10⁸/6.63×10⁻³⁴=6.79×10¹⁴ Hz, energy E= h f =4.5×10⁻¹⁹ J, for 5.0×10⁻¹⁹ J frequency f=E/h=7.54×10¹⁴ Hz. The energy of a photon is given by E = h v , making it directly proportional to frequency. Applying E = h f = h c/λ, p = h/λ, K_max = h f - Φ, Φ = h
