-- The highest frequency of sound audible to the human ear is of the order of 20,000 Hz.
-- The lowest frequency of light visible to the human eye is of the order of 375,000,000,000,000 Hz.

How do the frequencies of blue light or red light compare?
The frequency of blue light is roughly double the frequency of red light.
How does the frequency of re-emitted light in a transparent material compare with the frequency of the light that stimulates its re-emission?
The frequency of emitted light in a transparent object is the same as light that stimulates its re-emission.
How does frequency affect light?
Frequency is the characteristic of light that gives rise to our experience of color. It is analogous to the relationship of frequency and pitch for sound.
What does a high frequency of vibrations produce?
Heat, light and, if in an atmosphere, sound.
The quality in sound that corresponds to color in light is?
sound and light both share wave properties (ie. frequency and wave length). unlike sound light behaves as both a wave and a particle.
How do the wavelength and frequency of red light compare to the wavelength and frequency of blue light?
very nice answer.
How do the frequencies of blue light or red light compare?
The frequency of blue light is roughly double the frequency of red light.
What is an example of frequency?
Frequency can be found in sound, light, and line current. An example of frequency is, the frequency wave of light will determine what color the light is.
What is the ratio of frequency of visible light to frequency of audible sound?
The lowest frequency of visible light ... assume wavelength = 750 nm ...is around 400,000 GHz.The highest frequency of audible sound is around 20 KHz.So the smallest ratio ... lowest frequency of light to highest frequency of sound ...is 4 x 1014/2 x 104 = 20 billion .
How would the wavelength and frequency of a red light compare to the wavelengths and frequencies of green and violet lights?
-- Red light has the lowest frequency of those three. -- Green light has lower frequency than violet light has. -- The wavelength of all light is inversely proportional to its frequency.
How does the frequency of re-emitted light in a transparent material compare with the frequency of the light that stimulates its re-emission?
The frequency of emitted light in a transparent object is the same as light that stimulates its re-emission.
How does frequency affect light?
Frequency is the characteristic of light that gives rise to our experience of color. It is analogous to the relationship of frequency and pitch for sound.
Compare the frequency and energy of infrared waves to the frequency energy of the visible light?
Visible light has a higher frequency, a higher energy per photon, and a smaller wavelength, compared to infrared.
What is a subjective property of sound related to frequency?
Pitch is related to the frequency of Sound. So the subjective property is Pitch. Colour is related to the wavelength of Light. So the subjective property of Light is Colour.
Is Frequency modulated in the light beam of the laser when transfering sound?
Yes it is. That is why you get a scrachy and unclear sound.
Compare to yellow light orange light has?
... greater wavelength, lower frequency, less energy per photon.
What does a high frequency of vibrations produce?
Heat, light and, if in an atmosphere, sound.
