Blue light has shorter wavelength than red light.

Remember ROYGBIV? If you reverse the sequence - VIBGYOR, you have all the colors listed from shortest wavelength to longest wavelength in the visible spectrum.

Or, you can just simply consult an electromagnetic (EM) spectrum.

Is the wave length of infrared light too short to be seen or too long?

The wavelength of infra-red light is LONGER than the wavelength of red light, and longer than anything to which the eye responds.


Does ROY G. BIV list colors from long wavelength to short wavelength or short to long wavelength?

The color of visible light with the longest wavelength is red; the color with the shortest is violet. So "ROY G. BIV" lists the colors from long to short wavelength. Just to confuse you, we'll also mention that it lists them from lowest to highest frequency.


What is the wavelenght of red light?

The wavelength of red light is typically between 620 to 750 nanometers. wavelengths.


What are the colors of visible light in order?

Going from short wavelength light to long wavelength light, the order goes Red - Orange - Yellow - Green - Blue - Indigo - Violet (ROYGBIV)


What has a longer wavelength red or green?

Red light has the longest wavelength that's visible to the eye.Violet light, just past blue in the rainbow, has the shortest wavelengththat's visible to the eye. It's roughly half the size of a wave of red light.


Is the wavelength of infra-red light to short to be seen?

Yes, the wavelength of infrared light is too long to be seen by the human eye. Infrared light has longer wavelengths than visible light, ranging from about 700 nanometers to 1 millimeter, which is beyond the visible spectrum for humans.


Which type of visible light has the longest wavelength?

The longest wavelength / lowest frequency visible light is the red end of the spectrum. The shortest wavelength / highest frequency visible light is the violet end of the spectrum.


Is a red light a visible light with the shortest wavelength?

No, red light has the longest wavelength within the visible light spectrum.


Is the Visible light with the shortest wavelength a red light?

No, red light has the longest wavelength within the visible light spectrum.


Why when you combine red and blue do you get a different color?

When you combine red and blue light, they create magenta or purple (depending on the specific shades of red and blue). This happens because red light has a long wavelength, blue light has a short wavelength, and when they overlap, they stimulate different color receptors in our eyes, resulting in a perception of a new color.


Which of the colors of light has the longest wavelength?

The color red has the longest wavelength of any color.


What is a sentence for wavelength?

The wavelength of a transverse wave is the distance between adjacent crests or troughs (peaks or valleys).
