Light doesn't have a refractive index. The medium or substance

through which the light travels has the refractive index.

Is the velocity of a red light lower than the velocity of violet light?

No it justs refracts further


What colour refracts the most when a ray of light passes through a prism?

Violet light refracts the most when passing through a prism because it has the shortest wavelength among the visible light spectrum. This causes violet light to bend more sharply compared to other colors, leading to a greater deviation.


What colour refracts the largest angle from a prism?

Violet light refracts the most from a prism because it has a shorter wavelength compared to other colors, causing it to bend more when passing through the prism.


Which color refracts most?

Violet because it has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency


What color do you mix to create red violet?

You add blue to red but just more red than blue for red violet.


Does red or violet have more energy?

Violet has more energy than red. This is because violet light has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency, which corresponds to higher energy according to the electromagnetic spectrum.

What are the colors in red violet?

Violet and red-violet are made of red and blue.


Is red or violet light diffracted most?

Violet light is diffracted more than red light because shorter wavelengths are diffracted more than longer wavelengths.


Why are colors present in rainbows?

Light is naturally made up of the different colors. It is just that when we see it, it appears white because all the colors are blended together. Rainbows occur when sunlight passes through the raindrops. The white light is refracted in millions and millions of raindrops. In these white light, there are the different colors that travel at different speed. The color red refracts less because it is slower while the violet color of the rainbow refracts more because it is faster. The colours of the rainbow are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
