They have roughly half the wavelength / twice the frequency.

Ultraviolet light infrared light and what?

The electromagnetic wave radiation spectrum is large . . . it goes from radio waves to microwaves to light waves to X-Rays and so on. We can only see the part of this spectrum that we call light waves. The colors of visible light waves runs from red on the low end, through orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. We cannot see light that is lower than red or higher than violet. "Infra" means 'below'. "Infra red" means 'below red'. We can't see infrared or lower. "Ultra" means 'beyond or above'. "Ultra violet" means 'above violet'. We cannot see ultraviolet or higher.


When red light is compared with violet light what happens?

Red light has a longer wavelength and lower frequency compared to violet light. This results in red light having lower energy than violet light. In terms of human perception, red light appears less energetic and more calming compared to the higher energy and stimulating violet light.


What travels more slowly in glass red light or violet?

Red light travels more slowly in glass than violet light. This is because the speed of light in a medium is inversely proportional to its wavelength, and red light has a longer wavelength compared to violet light.


Does red or violet have a longer wavelength?

Red light has a longer wavelength than violet light. Red light has wavelengths around 620-750 nanometers, while violet light has wavelengths around 380-450 nanometers.


What is faster red or violet light?

Violet light is faster than red light because violet light has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency, allowing it to travel faster through a medium.

Are red yellow and green the colors beyond violet light?

No, red, yellow, and green are not considered colors beyond violet light. Beyond violet light, there are ultraviolet rays, which are not visible to the human eye. Red, yellow, and green are part of the visible spectrum of light.

Does red or violet have the shortest wavelength?

Violet light has a shorter wavelength than red light. In the visible light spectrum, colors with shorter wavelengths, like violet, are located at the higher end of the spectrum, while colors with longer wavelengths, like red, are at the lower end.

Why does a red strawberry appear to be red?

The same reason why red roses appear red, or anything else appears red for that matter. Objects appear red when they absorb all other colours of light (remember, light from the sun is a spectrum of Red-Orange-Yellow-Green-Blue-Indigo-Violet). So strawberries absorb orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet rays of light emitted from the sun. They reflect back all red rays of light from the sun, which go into your eyes, which we see, hence strawberries appear red.
