No, blue and red visible light have different wavelengths. if you see the rainbow, blue and red can been seen on separate stripes which means they have different wavelengths.

No, they don't. The wavelength increases from violet to red.

No. That's why they appear to be different colors.

The blue wavelength is shorter than the red wavelength.

The shortest wavelengths of visible light are?

The shortest wavelength that your eye can see produces the last color you can see on the blue end of the 'rainbow'.


Does infred waves have the same wavelength as visible light waves?

Infrared radiation is not visible. Its wavelength is longer than red.


What color of visible light has the lowest wave length?

The visible light with the shortest wavelength is the last color you can see on the blue/violet end of the rainbow. It's not exactly the same for all eyes.


Are the wavelength ranges for visible light the same or different?

Different.


How does the wavelength of gamma rays compare to the wavelength of visible light?

It is electromagnetic radiation, which is the same in composition as visible light but has a much higher frequency/shorter wavelength, and will do damage to any biological material it passes through. Both travel at the same speed ('velocity of light') but gamma radiation can penetrate material opaque to visible light.


Which color in the visible spectrum has the shortest wavelength?

The shortest wavelength of visible light for your eye is the wavelength of the lastcolor you can see on the blue end of the rainbow. It may be slightly different forsomeone else's eye.


What color of light has the lowest wave length?

The visible light with the shortest wavelength is the last color you can see on the blue/violet end of the rainbow. It's not exactly the same for all eyes.


Between green light and red light which has a higher frequency?

Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light, (i.e. greater distance for one oscillation of red light compared to blue light) so there are less oscillations in the same period of time for red light, and thus red light has a lower frequency than blue light. More concisely: Wavelength = Wavespeed / Frequency , where wavespeed is constant So Frequency = Wavespeed / Wavelength Therefore as wavelength increases, frequency decreases. Make sense? Jack


Is infrared electromagnetic?

Yes.It is the same as visible light but.has a longer wavelength than red light, hence "infrared"


A red light wave and a blue light wave have similarities and differences what are the same wavelength frequency energy and speed?

wavelength frequency energy are different. speed should be the same.


Speed of red light and blue light in a vacuum?

In a vacuum the speed of red and blue light are the same as all light, 300,000,000m/s. Their frequency and wavelength will be different but the speed remains the same.


What color had the shortest wavelength?

The visible light with the shortest wavelength is the last color you can see at the violet end of the spectrum. It's not exactly the same for all eyes.
