Yes. Blue light has a lower wavelength than yellow light, which is why it is perceived by out eyes as a different color. Blue light's wavelength is around 450 nanometers and yellow light's wavelength is around 575 nanometers. since the speed of light is constant for all light, and frequency is the speed of light over the wavelength of the light, the larger the wavelength, the lower the frequency. And the lower the frequency, the lower the energy. So the shorter wavelength of light (in this case, blue colored light) has a faster frequency, and therefore more energy.

frequency = (speed of light)/(wavelength)
Colors have shorter wavelengths and larger frequencies towards blue and longer wavelengths and smaller frequencies towards red on the traditional color scale: Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, Red.
As colors progress from violet towards red, the energy goes down.

Which has greatest frequency yellow light or green light?
Blue and yellow colors make green color. Blue has got more energy than yellow color. So green color will have more energy than yellow color. Hence proved.
Which has more energy a photon of red light or photon of violet light?
The violet light has more energy than the red light. Red light is lower on the electromagnetic spectrum, meaning it has a lower frequency (or longer wavelength). You'll recall the colors of the rainbow as red, orange, yellow, etc., and these are the colors going up the frequency spectrum. Photons higher on the spectrum are higher in frequency and energy.
What types of energy super heroes use?
In the universe of Marvel, there are many forms of energy used by super heroes. The problem comes to actually describing this energy because it is in general only fiction. Superman get his power from our yellow sun. It is difficult to know what kind of energy this is because he can convert this into heat vision, x-ray vision, Strength, invulnerability, speed. Hal Jordan/Green lantern get his power from a ring that transform "green" light energy into something more solid by the power of though and will. As with all SuperHeroes, the explanation in the magazines are often Sun-Energy or Yellow light energy, green light energy, Antimatter-energy, Dimensional energy.. Not many types of energy that we can actually harness and use. It is fiction, and hence it is difficult to explain what type this energy or that energy is. My best "guess" on the energy would be "Power of imagination". The best power of all. Never yealding. Never fading. Always present.
Green light emitted by excited mercury vapor corresponds to a particular energy transition in the mercury atom a more energetic transition might emit?
Blue Light
Does UV or red light have more energy?
UV light has higher frequency, so it has more energy than red light has
Which has greatest frequency yellow light or green light?
Blue and yellow colors make green color. Blue has got more energy than yellow color. So green color will have more energy than yellow color. Hence proved.
Which has more energy green light or yellow light?
Green light. If you use the abbreviation ROY G. Biv ( red, orange yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet), you will always know that the red light has the longest wavelength and violet has the smallest wavelength. Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional to one another. So if the wavelength is large, frequency is small, and when wavelength is small, frequency is large. Green light has a smaller wavelength than yellow. Likewise it has a higher frequency than yellow does. Therefore, green light has a higher frequency than yellow light.
Is a Bunsen burner flame is easy to see when it is yellow or blue?
It is easier to see when it is yellow. It produces more heat energy and less light energy when it is blue. The yellow flame produces more light energy than heat energy. That makes it more visible
What light is needed for photosynthesis?
sunlightBlue and red light is more absorbed. Green and yellow are not preferred.
How do you mix color to make light green?
To make a green you simply mix blue and yellow. If you want it to be a lighter green you add more yellow than blue and if you want a dark/bluey green you add more blue.
Which has more energy a photon of red light or photon of violet light?
The violet light has more energy than the red light. Red light is lower on the electromagnetic spectrum, meaning it has a lower frequency (or longer wavelength). You'll recall the colors of the rainbow as red, orange, yellow, etc., and these are the colors going up the frequency spectrum. Photons higher on the spectrum are higher in frequency and energy.
Why does boric acid and methanol burn green?
It doesn't burn green it burns yellow. you only get green when you mix it with a substance that burns blue so the two colors can mix to make green
What would a green object look like in a yellow light?
Dark green.A more descriptive answer:It depends on the exact spectra the light emits, not just what it looks to us.If the light combines red and green wavelengths, then the green object will appear green, because of the green wavelength. The object may have a yellowish tinge because of small reflection of the red wavelength.If the light is spectral yellow and not just red + green, then the green object will appear a much darker green maybe with a slight yellow or dark-yellow tinge because of, again, small reflection of dominant yellow wavelength.
Why do you know that lithium salts will never emit green light and copper salts will never emit red light?
Because they each have their own level of energy. Green light has more energy than red light.
What is yellow is green?
Well yellow and green are color but what I think your asking is" What is yellow is actually green" well if thats the case then sorta. A yellow object actually reflects red and green light, we see it as yellow. On the light spectra there are the three primary colors of light, red, green, and blue. There are also 2 secondary colors, yellow and cyan. Magenta is a secondary color but it doesn't appear on the spectra like white so its a phantom color. You'll noticed that magenta is similar to red, cyan is to blue and yellow is to green. if you pick a color in between yellow and green it'll appear more green than yellow since its a primary color of light, making it naturally darker than most colors. I hope I answered your question.
Why certain types of algae contain pigments other then just chlorphyll?
Chlorophyll is great at absorbing blue light but not red yellow or green so in order to obtain more energy from the sun plants have other pigments that absorb more of the light spectrum.
What color do you get by mixing yellow and blue?
In equal quantities, green. Other shades are possible, ranging from blue-green to greenish yellow.(Blue is on one side of the spectrum, yellow is in the middle. Between them is the transitional color green. Any color that adds blue to yellow takes it into the green.)Blue and yellow are primary colors. When you mix them, you get the secondary color green. The more blue you have in the mixture, the darker the green.Yellow and blue make greenIt gives you dark greenWhen you mix blue and yellow you get green. It depends on how much blue and yellow you use to make it a light green or a blue-green.Blue and yellow make green.
