I just realised I’m not entirely sure what stores/transmits energy in photos. Obviously the frequency of the photon is important, higher frequency is higher energy. But does light have amplitude?
What would amplitude even mean for a photon? In water it’d be the height that the wave reaches
Is there a limit to the amount of energy that could be contained/transmitted by a photon?
(I’m too stupid for science)
It’s my understanding that photons don’t have a frequency, waves have a frequency. The photon is just the surfer on that wave.
