Which color has the longest wavelength and shows that a star is moving away from us?

It's not that a particular color has the longest wavelength. The wavelength BECOMES longer when a star moves away from us. Red light has a longer wavelength than blue, for example.


Which has the longer wavelength radar or light?

Radar has the longer wavelength.


What is the relationship between the color of light and its wavelength?

Each color has a wavelength and frequency associated with it. We're familiar with the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. These colors range from longer wavelength (lower frequency) red up through shorter wavelength (higher frequency) violet. As one moves up through those colors from red to violet, the color is an indication to relative wavelength.


What color of the visible light region has the longer wavelengths?

Red has the longest wavelength, up to 750nm.


How do colors tell you about the temperature of a star?

The colder a star is the longer the light waves it emits. Light wavelength is what we perceive as color.


Which has longer wavelength radio v light?

Radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible light.


Is visible light a shorter or longer wavelength energy in this spectrum?

Shorter or longer than what ? The wavelength of visible light is shorter than that of radio and heat, and longer than the wavelength of X-ray and gamma radiation. And the wavelength of green light is shorter than red light but longer than blue light.


How does light become coloured?

Light's color depends on its wavelength. Shorter wavelengths make light more red, while longer make it more violet colored. Red light has a wavelength of approximately 700 nm, while violet light has a wavelength of 400 nm.


Does the red light have a short or long wavelength?

Blue light has shorter wavelength than red light. Remember ROYGBIV? If you reverse the sequence - VIBGYOR, you have all the colors listed from shortest wavelength to longest wavelength in the visible spectrum. Or, you can just simply consult an electromagnetic (EM) spectrum.


Does heat have shorter or longer wavelength than light?

Heat has longer wavelength / lower frequency than visible light.


Which light wavelength make it through glass faster?

Red light (longer wavelength)


How is the color of light determined?

By the light's wavelength.
