Light always travels at the same speed, the speed of light. At least in vacuum. In a medium light will travel at a slower pace, and the speed decrease is dependent on the color (wavelength) of the light. This is because the refractive index (which determines how fast light can travel through a medium) is color dependent.

Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of the light waves projected by the laser?
does the color of a lease affect the velocity of the light waves projected by the laser?
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of the light wave projected bt the laser?
No.
Does the color of the laser affect the velocity of the light wave projected by the laser?
No, velocity and color are independent. Color is determined by frequency, and speed is determined by what material the light is traveling through.
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of a light wave projected by the laser?
Colors are determined by the wavelengths but all wavelengths travel at the same speed. So no, colors do not affect the velocity of light.
Does color of a laser affects the velocity of the light wave projected by a laser?
No. Light travels at the same speed no matter what.
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of the light wave projected by the laser?
ummm, no. that's probably the dumbest thing Ive ever heard.Lasers use light rays of set wavelengths so I guess your answer is the dumbest answer I've ever heard.
Does color of the laser affect the velocity of light waves?
No. The speed of all colors of light, and of all other wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, is the same number, as long as they're all making their way through the same substance.
Do the color of a laser affects the velocity of light wave by the laser?
No. The color is determined by the light's *frequency*, but, as Einstein proved, there is one and only one velocity at which light can propagate, c or the speed of light. All light propagates at this same velocity (there are ways to slow it down slightly, e.g. by passing through dense material, but this affects all light the same). The speed of light being a constant is one of the very foundations of modern physics.
Can a laser pointer have a black laser?
No, black is the absence of color, thus it cannot be the color of a laser.
Do laser printers print colr?
Do you mean: "Do laser printers print in color?"?There are two types of laser printers:1. Black&White Laser Printers - they DON'Tprint in color.2. Color Laser Printers - they DO print in color.
Can you change the color of a laser pointer?
No. Each laser pointer uses a laser that emits a specific color. the only way to get a different color would be to get a different laser.
Does the frequency or wavelength of a laser affect the velocity of the light wave projected by the laser?
No. The frequency of the entire electromagnetic spectrum varies continuously from low to high frequency. The speed of light remains a constant 186,000 miles per second. That is 300,000 km/sec.
