What causes the different colors in the spectrum?
Visible light contains all of the colors with in the spectrum. The only way we see color is the bending and refraction of the visible light sending certain wave lengths back, which our brain interprets as different colors.
Do green plants reflect all colors of the spectrum?
No. Actually they ABSORB all colors of the visible spectrum except green and REFLECT green light.
How does refraction create the colors of visible spectrum?
i came here for the answer and your telling me to answer it . i think as the wave stretches the colors begin to reduce. like red into orange etc.
Why red is the most visible color?
The color red is the longest wavelength in the visible light spectrum because the less energy a wave carries the longer the wavelength and red carries the least energy of all the colors in the visible spectrum
What is a visible spectrum?
The Visible Spectrum is that part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum which can be seen with the naked eye. It consists of the frequencies between 380 nanometers and 700 nanometers. It consists of the colors Violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. You can get information on the total Electromagnetic Spectrum from Wikipedia or any other encylopedia.
Which colors are on the short side of the wave spectrum?
Violet and blue. The spectrum of visible light, from shortest to longest wavelengths can be listed as: violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, red.
Is White light is made up of an mixture of many colors of light?
White light is what we see when light of all (or most) of the frequencies in the visible spectrum are emitted together from the same source. It is the combination of every visible light wave.
Is there a color or colors that no one ever seen and why is that?
Yes , there may be , because human visible range is between 400nm to 700nm wave length of spectrum,if we change our visible range then we can observe several new colors, but question is how.
Do all colors have the same wave lengths?
The visible light part of the electromagnetic spectrum is below the ultraviolet but above infrared. Purple light has the highest wave length and red has the lowest.
What wave type has a frequency of 23808 GHz?
visible spectrum
Which color registers the highest frequency shortest wave length?
Of the visible light spectrum, that would be blue light.
Why do scientists prefer to talk about a wave model of light instead of saying that light is a wave?
"Visible light" is that part of the electromagnetic spectrum (which includes radio waves, heat, X-rays and Gamma rays) which our eyes can detect. Thus when scientists are talking about "light" they are talking about ALL of the spectrum and when they say "visible light" they are talking about that small bit of the spectrum that we can see.
