A photon of yellow light has lower frequency that a photon of violet light. Remember that light can be considered both as particles (photons) and as waves. So when saying a photon has higher frequencie, its actually the wave part of the light that has a higher frequency.

Is there a difference between violet and indigo?

That depends on whether or not you're talking about the colors themselves or if you're talking about the Energy differences from the chemistry equations for R.O.Y.G.B.I.V. In case you don't know what that is that would be the atomic spectrum's. RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, INDIGO, AND VIOLET. So in all do respect there is a difference between violet and indigo, violet is purple and indigo is a dark blue. Besides Violet and Indigo have two completely different nanometers.


In the spectrum colors what comes between violet and blue?

yellow


How many colors are there between violet and red in the rainbow of seven colors?

There are five colors between Red and Violet. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.


In the visible spectrum what color comes between green and orange?

In order, the visible spectrum is violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red. Yellow is the color between green and orange.


Which has more energy a photon of red light or photon of violet light?

The violet light has more energy than the red light. Red light is lower on the electromagnetic spectrum, meaning it has a lower frequency (or longer wavelength). You'll recall the colors of the rainbow as red, orange, yellow, etc., and these are the colors going up the frequency spectrum. Photons higher on the spectrum are higher in frequency and energy.


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.


6 intermediate colors?

The intermediate colors include red-orange, yellow-orange, blue violet, yellow-green, blue-green, and red-violet. To get an intermediate color, a primary color is combined with a secondary color that is adjacent.


What is the difference between a black and a yellow hornet?

The difference is that the black on is more powerful then the yellow.


What are the colors in order of increasing wavelength?

The longest wavelengths of light are the lowest frequencies (and the lowest energy and the longest period, too). These are the reds, and moving up the spectrum, we encounter orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. The violet light has the shortest wavelength (highest frequency), and the highest energy. The infrared (IR) is below the red (longer wavelength and lower frequency), and the ultraviolet (UV) is above the violet (shorter wavelength and higher frequency).


What is the complimentary color of violet?

yellow. violet is made of red and blue. the other primary color is yellow.
