A. directly related to its frequency
B. inversely related to its wave length
C. dependent on the medium the wave travels through
D. directly related to its absorption spectrum
E. directly related to its emission spectrum

I'm almost certain the answer is C, but i don't have the solution to this question so I just wanted to confirm with you guys.
 
E = hc/ lambda? off the top of my head... duno

i would go with C also just by process of elimination... don't know if I would have known that it doesn't depend on the medium otherwise. Except that there is no variable for medium..

Seems logical that it would?? Or maybe... the energy is not dependent... but if you were talking about the velocity then it would be... the energy is always the same otherwise through a uniform medium.

i'm half asking all that as a question...

can someone also explain why its dependent on the absorp/emission...
