True or False When a prism refracts light it separates out the various colors based on their wavelength?
True.
How are the light waves of colours different from each other?
Each color has a different frequency and wavelength; with red having the longest wavelength and lowest frequency of all the visible colors & violet having the shortest wavelength and highest frequency of the colors humans can see.
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
Longest wavelength in the spectrum of color?
The color red has the longest wavelength of all the colors in the light spectrum.
What are different colors of light differ in their?
Wavelength. You could also say frequency, since wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional.
What colors are associated with wavelength?
Of the colors visible to humans, red light has the lowest wavelength. Violet light and white light have the highest wavelengths.

How does a rainbow get colors?
Light breaks up based on the wavelength. That is also why the sky is blue. Red has the longest, and violet the shortest.
How do you get color?
Based upon the light spectrum colors are different wavelengths of light. Think about it as on the same wavelength as microwave and gamma.
What is the relationship between the color of light and its wavelength?
Each color has a wavelength and frequency associated with it. We're familiar with the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. These colors range from longer wavelength (lower frequency) red up through shorter wavelength (higher frequency) violet. As one moves up through those colors from red to violet, the color is an indication to relative wavelength.

What are the colors of visible light in order of increasing wavelength.?
The colours of visible light (to humans) are the colours of the rainbow. Red has the longest wavelength and violet the shortest. There is some argument as to whether indigo should be included but if it isn't, the colours in increasing wavelength are violet, blue, green, yellow, orange and red.
What determine the colors of opaque object?
the wavelength of the reflected light :)
Which of the colors of light has the longest wavelength?
The color red has the longest wavelength of any color.
Longest wavelength in the spectrum of color?
The color red has the longest wavelength of all the colors in the light spectrum.
The order of colors observed in the visible light spectrum is determined by the?
Colors are ordered by frequency, or equivalently, by wavelength.
