Answer:
UV radiation has more energy than microwaves, because UV radiation has a higher frequency.
Explanation:
The energy of the electromagnetic radiation is given as:
[tex]E=hf\textrm{ or }E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]
Where,
[tex]h\rightarrow\textrm{Planck's constant}\\c\rightarrow\textrm{Velocity of light}\\f\rightarrow\textrm{frequency of radiation}\\\lambda \rightarrow\textrm{wavelength of radiation}[/tex]
Now, we know from electromagnetic spectrum that, frequency of UV radiation is much higher than that of microwaves.
From the energy equation of the electromagnetic radiation, we conclude that:
Energy is directly proportional to frequency of radiation but inversely proportional to its wavelength.
As UV radiation's frequency is higher, it will have more energy than microwaves.
