Oh, what a wonderful question. Imagine a sunset, slowly dipping down below the horizon - that deep, soothing red you see there is the color associated with the longest waves of light. It's like nature's way of painting the sky with warmth and calmness. Go ahead and try using those beautiful red tones in your own artwork, and just let your brush dance across the canvas with joy.

Why do CDs reflect rainbow colors?
Like water drops in falling rain, the CD separates white light into all the colors that make it up. The colors you see reflecting from a CD are interference colors, like the shifting colors you see on a soap bubble or an oil slick. You can think of light as as being made up of waves-like the waves in the ocean. When light waves reflect off the ridges on your CD, they overlap and interfere with each other. Sometimes the waves add together, making certain colors brighter, and sometimes they cancel each other, taking certain colors away.
When a star is red is its waves longer or shorter?
When a star is red, its waves are longer. Red light has a longer wavelength compared to other colors in the visible spectrum.
What instrument is used to view different colors of light?
The simplest instrument would be a prism. However, a "spectograph" is a word used to represent several different types of machines, usually used to separate incoming waves (such as light waves) into a frequency spectrum. A spectograph is sometimes called a "polychromator."
What electromagnetic waves are produced by stars and galaxies?
Stars and galaxies emit a broad range of electromagnetic waves including visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and radio waves. The specific wavelengths and intensities of these emissions depend on the temperature, composition, and activity of the celestial object.
Do light waves carry energy?
Light waves do carry energy, and when oscillated light can carry information.
What property of light waves is responsible for color?
The property of light waves responsible for color is their wavelength. Each color corresponds to a specific wavelength of light. Shorter wavelengths are associated with colors towards the blue end of the spectrum, while longer wavelengths are associated with colors towards the red end.
What color are the longest waves of light?
The longest waves of light are red. In the visible light spectrum, red light has the longest wavelength, which is around 620-750 nanometers.
How will you relate color light with frequency?
Color light is determined by the frequency of the light waves. Different colors of light correspond to different frequencies of light waves. For example, red light has a lower frequency than blue light. The relationship between color light and frequency is that higher frequencies are associated with colors towards the violet end of the spectrum, while lower frequencies are associated with colors towards the red end.
What is the coulor of the longest waves of light?
The longest wavelength for visible light is red. Anything longer than that (and with less frequency) would be infrared, or eventually radio waves.
What are advantages of visible light?
The advantage of visible light is that you can see it. Also, because our eyes are sensitive to light you can see colors. Violet has the shortest wavelength and red has the longest. Visible light is the only EM waves that you can see.
What does the frequency of sound and light waves look like?
The frequency of sound waves refers to the number of complete oscillations or cycles per second, measured in hertz. Higher frequency sound waves are perceived as higher pitch and lower frequency waves as lower pitch. For light waves, frequency is associated with the color of light, with higher frequencies corresponding to bluer colors and lower frequencies to redder colors. Light waves have much higher frequencies than sound waves, measured in terahertz (THz) or petahertz (PHz).
Which kind of waves are the longest Radar waves Radio waves Visible Light or Gamma Rays?
for wavelength, the longer of the two is visible light, but the longest type of rays are radio waves (some of them have a wavelength as long as a football field)
What is the order of colors of light waves?
The order of light waves is the same order as the colors of the rainbow. The order is Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. The colors are ordered based on their wavelength, with red being the longest wavelength, and Violet being the shortest. Source: http://science.hq.nasa.gov/kids/imagers/ems/visible.html
When light waves strike a blue object what happens to the light waves of all colors?
When light waves strike a blue object, the object absorbs most of the colors in the light spectrum except for blue. Blue light waves are reflected off the object, giving it its blue color.
Which color light has the longest wavelength-green violet or yellow?
Between Yellow, Green and Violet, the Yellow color has the longest light wave. The order of the 7 rainow colors, sorted by their light waves from the longest to the shortest, is as follows: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.
Which will have the longest wavelengths light waves X-rays or radio waves?
Of the items on that list, radio has the longest wavelength and x-rays have the shortest.
What are light?
Visible light waves are the only electromagnetic waves we can see. We see these waves as the colors of the rainbow. Each color has a different wavelength. Red has the longest wavelength and violet has the shortest wavelength. When all the waves are seen together, they make white light.
