ive been trying to figure out why some photons possess more energy than others, and my research keeps coming back to “the frequency is directly proportional to the energy present within the photon” however i am struggling to find any explanations as to why this is. i suppose that this links to my secondary question of what type of energy do photons even posess, because clearly there is energy that is able to have tangible impacts on the world, but i dont really understand what form it takes.

Nobody knows for sure.
It seems likely that it’s the energy that causes the frequency, not the other way around. But that’s only speculative.
