I seem to remember from an academic class long, long ago, that lasers of a shorter wavelength have more "energy" than those of a longer wavelength.
Is there a formula to calculate the energy of a laser? (Given its wavelength and power in mW?)
Also, in real life experience, would that mean that mean if you had three different lasers of the same power (200mW red, green, and IR), the green laser would burn through electrical tape faster than a red laser, and the red laser would burn through electrical tape faster than the IR laser?
