Most of your question can be answered here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraunhofer_lines
I would assume that "strength" refers to the amount of energy the wave has? There's an equation to find energy from just the wavelength, but I can't recall it of the top of my head. Wavelength is inversely proportional to energy so the shortest wave is the "strongest".
Heh, you silly chemistry people need more physics
