Not generally, no. Red pepper flakes tend to be made out of chili peppers, which contain capsaicin, giving them a spicy sensation.
Red bell pepper flakes do not contain capsaicin and don't have the spice of the red pepper flakes.

Are red pepper and a red bell pepper are the same?
The term "bell pepper" implies that it's not spicy, but yes, unless you're talking about a SPECIFIC kind of pepper (i.e. Habanero, Jalepeno) they are the same. Take care. Red pepper is also the name used to describe the hot pepper flakes used in Italian cooking. That's very different from red pepper meaning a bell pepper.

Are all peppers fruit?
There are a lot of different things called "pepper".MOST of them are fruits. For example, black pepper is the cooked, dried, and ground fruit (including seeds) of the plant Piper nigrum, and bell peppers and chile peppers are both fruits (there are different varieties with varying degrees of "hotness", but bell peppers, ghost peppers, and everything in between are all the same species, Capsicum annuum). Cayenne pepper ( one kind of red pepper) is the ground-up dried fruit of a variety of the same species. A different kind of red pepper is the ripe fruit (sometimes pickled in brine or vinegar) of Piper nigrumagain.However, white pepper is the seeds (without the fruit) of Piper nigrum, and "pepper dulse" is a kind of seaweed.

What is ground red bell pepper used for?
Ground red bell pepper goes very well in stir fry. It can also be used in spaghetti sauce and other foods that call for bell pepper. Ground yellow and orange bell peppers can also be used in these same foods as they are very close in taste to the red ones. And a mix of all three is a good choice too. Paprika is sometimes made with ground red bell pepper and that is used in goulash, soups, stews, and other sauces. Therefore, in the absence of paprika for a recipe the ground bell pepper can be used as a substitute.
Why does a yellow pepper taste sweeter than a green pepper?
There are many different types of peppers or chiles, but I assume this question is asking about bell peppers. A green bell pepper (which we often just refer to as a green pepper) is actually a fruit that is unripe. These peppers change colors as they ripen, going from yellow to orange and to red. They are sold in all these stages of ripening, causing us to refer to them as green, yellow, and red peppers as if they are different peppers.As the bell pepper ripens, like many other fruits, its sugars start to develop. This is when some of the starches in the pepper are converted to simple sugars. Now, a bell pepper does not have as many sugars as, for instance, an apple, but it does have some. The riper the pepper, the sweeter it becomes. So, a yellow pepper is a bit sweeter than a green pepper, and a red pepper is sweeter than a yellow pepper.
