Here is Questions on Light as a Particle and Wave Characteristics (Non-math).
1) Wavelength (λ) is the distance between crests (m or nm) and frequency (f) is the number of wave that goes by a point in a given period of time, usually 1 sec (1 1/s = 1 Hz).
2) Indirectly proportional, c = λ * f
3) c (speed of light) = 3.00E8 m*Hz. (3.00E8 m/s)
4) Infrared. Heat
5) ROYBGIV. Violet λ = 400.nm
6) Ultraviolet (UV)
7) Max Planck
8) Directly, E = h*f where E = energy J, f = frequency (Hz) and (Planck's constant) h = 6.60E-34 J/Hz
9) E is indirectly proportional to λ
10) Violet since it has the lowest λ (for colors) therefore it must container the largest energy packet size. Conversely, red color would have the lowest energy packet size (of colors).
