Here's a bit more detail:
* Electromagnetic radiation: Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, which is a type of energy that travels in waves.
* Photons: These waves are quantized, meaning they exist in discrete packets called photons. Each photon carries a specific amount of energy.
* Frequency and wavelength: The energy of a photon is directly related to its frequency and wavelength. Higher frequency light (like blue light) has more energy per photon than lower frequency light (like red light).
So, while we often think of light as a continuous wave, it's actually made up of a stream of tiny, energetic particles called photons.
