Blue light is diffracted more than red. The way I remember is by thinking about the waves being closer together in the blue light and knowing that each wave interacts with the whatever is causing the diffraction (grating or object).
More waves in a given area means more interaction which means more diffraction.

∙ 11y agoYes, red light has less energy than blue light, on a per photon basis. You could still have more red light than blue light, which changes the amount of energy. Red light has a higher frequency (and longer wavelength) than blue light, and the higher the frequency, the higher the energy content.

Which color of light has more energy blue or red?
Blue light has more energy.Using the formula:photon energy (E) = Planck constant (h) * frequency (ƒ) Blue has a higher frequency than red. Since h is constant, E increases as ƒ increases.Using the formula:photon energy (E) = Planck constant (h) * speed of light (c) / wavelength (λ)Blue has a shorter wavelength than red. Since h and care considered constant, E increases as λ decreases.
Does blue light scatter less than red light?
No, Blue light scatters more than red light, (wr/wb)2=10.
Why does blue light scatter more than red light?
blue light has shorter wavelength than the red light.scattering of light is more when wavelength is small.
Is blue the brightest color of stars?
Yes. Blue signifies a temperature greater than 30,000 Kelvin
When the light is bluer the each photons contains?
Blue light is more energetic than reddish light.
Is the speed of sound as speed of light?
The speed of light is much greater than the speed of sound.
Why the speed of electron beam is greater than the light speed in cathode ray oscilloscope?
Why is the speed of the electron beam greater than the speed of light in cathode ray oscilloscope.
Is the speed of light greater or lesser in air than in water?
The speed is the same. Light travels at a finite speed.
If a red light has a longer wave length than a blue light which one has a greater frequency?
the blue light
What if red light is passed through convex lens instead of blue light?
The red light would focus on a point in space at a greater in distance than the blue light would have been. Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light and therefore since both are travailing at the same speed (the speed of light), the longer wave red light finds it's focal point at a time slightly after the blue light would have. This effect shares some characteristics with the Doppler effect, although sound does not need obey the constant speed law as light light does.
Why are electrons travel at greater than speed of light in television?
They don't. Nothing can exceed the speed of light. Electrons in a television travel much slower than the speed of light.
Why speed of light is greater than speed of sound?
The speed of light is the speed at which electromagnetic waves propagate through a medium. The speed of sound is the speed at which acoustic waves propagate through a medium. As the speed of sound relies on the medium moreso than the speed of light, sound propagates much slower than light.
Does red light travel faster than blue light?
No. All colors travel at the same speed. It is called "the speed of light".
How matter waves are greater than the velocity of light?
There are some situations in which waves move faster than the speed of light; but in no case can this be used to transmit matter, energy, or information, at a speed faster than the speed of light in a vacuum.
Jan saw the flash before she heard the sound what does this tell you about the speed of light and the speed of sound?
It tells you that the speed of light is greater than the speed of sound.in the environment that Jan was in
Is red light slower than blue light?
No. Light travels at the same speed, regardless of color.
Is the speed of darkness greater than the speed of light?
Darkness is only the absence of light. The 'speed of darkness', or the speed at which darkness 'propagates' (even though only the absence of photons is propagating) is therefor equal to the speed of light.
