How to Calculate and Solve for Energy of Electromagnetic Radiation | Optical Properties

Last Updated on July 16, 2022

The energy of electromagnetic radiation is illustrated by the image below.

To compute for energy of electromagnetic radiation, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Planck’s Constant (h) and Frequency (f).

The formula for calculating the energy of electromagnetic radiation:

E = hf

Where:

E = Energy of Electromagnetic Radiation
h = Planck’s Constant
f = Frequency

Given an example;
Find the energy of electromagnetic radiation when the planck’s constant is 6.62607004e-34 and the frequency is 20.

This implies that;

h = Planck’s Constant = 6.62607004e-34
f = Frequency = 20

E = hf
E = (6.62607004e-34)(20)
E = 1.325214008e-32

Therefore, the energy of electromagnetic radiation is 1.325214008e-32 J.
