Based on this equation, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to the wavelength. Thus, as frequency increases (with a corresponding decrease in wavelength), the electromagnetic wave energy increases, and vice versa.n order to operate the tutorial, first choose an exciting wavelength by using the mouse cursor to translate the Wavelength (or Energy) slider to the desired position. Next, use the mouse to press the blue Pulse button, which will excite the atom by absorption of a photon of the chosen wavelength.
Check it: Thus the first song ever played in space was a surprise rendition of Jingle Bells on an 8-note Honer harmonica and hand full of jingle bells to celebrate the arrival of the holiday season. If your ever at the Smithsonian Institution keep an eye out for these instruments!
About a month later Alan Shepard, Jr. became the first American in space on May 5, 1961, when he was launched aboard Mercury-Redstone 3. His 15-minute flight, dubbed Freedom 7, was watched by some 45 million television viewers. Between 1961 and 1963, six manned spacecraft flew as part of the Mercury project.
