Which colour have longest wavelength in the visible spectrum?

Red light has the longest wavelength.


Why is the color blue a color?

Blue is part of the colour spectrum, with a wavelength of about 475 nm.


Which colour in the visible pectrum has the longest wavelenght?

Red color in the visible spectrum has longest wavelength.


Is the colour of the ultra violet spectrum violet if not why was it given that name?

The ultraviolet spectrum is 'beyond' (ultra) the violet part of the visible spectrum, that is, beyond the short end of the wavelength range. The infrared spectrum is 'within' (infra) the long end of the wavelength range. The two terms have nothing to do with color, which defines the visible spectrum between violet and red.


What part of the electromagnetic spectrum has the greatest frequency?

If by greatest frequency you mean highest frequency, we know that the upper end of the electromagnetic spectrum has the greatest frequency. This is the home to the gamma rays. They have the highest frequency, shortest wavelength, and the greatest energy.


What does roy g biv look like?

like the colors of the rainbow. violet has the least wavelength or the greatest frequency possible that humans can see and marks one end of the visible spectrum in the electromagnetic spectrum. red has the highest wavelength or least frequency possible that humans can see and marks the other end of the visible spectrum of the electromagnetic spectrum.


Longest wavelength in the spectrum of color?

The color red has the longest wavelength of all the colors in the light spectrum.


In the electromagnetic spectrum is determined by its wavelength?

In the visible spectrum the color is determined by its' wavelength. The energy of the quantum package is determined by the wavelength. The shorter the wavelength the more power per package.


Why fire is blue in colour?

Fire is blue in colour because of its radiation, when it is red hot its electromagnetic wavelength expands towards the red end of the visible spectrum but is also gives off infra-red radiation (heat) when the fire gets even hotter however, the electromagnetic wavelength shortens and goes towards the blue end of the visible spectrum, hope this helps :)


What is maximum wavelength in the spectrum?

The wavelength is the spatial period of the wave and it can be measured between any 2 points with the same phase. The maximum wavelength in the spectrum is 502 nm.


As you move from the blue region of the electromagnetic spectrum to the red region of the electromagnetic spectrum what happens to the frequency of the light?

colour blue ------> red frequency drops, wavelength increases, because speed remains constant and speed=frequency*wavelength


Is ultraviolet the shortest wavelength?

No. If the shortest wavelength is on the left end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is microwaves. if the shortest wavelength is on the right end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is gamma rays. I think it is microwaves because micro means small.
