Red light is REFRACTED more than blue light; that's why sunrises and sunsets look red before the Sun comes up, or after the Sun goes down.

Does blue light scatter less than red light?

Blue light scatters more than red light. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength, causing it to interact more with particles in the atmosphere, like air molecules and dust, which leads to more scattering.


In glass blue light bends more than green light and green light bends more than red light Which one of the following has the highest index of refraction in glass?

The blue light is refracted more.


Why does blue light scatter more than red light?

Blue light has a shorter wavelength than red light, which causes it to interact more with particles and molecules in the atmosphere, resulting in more scattering. This is known as Rayleigh scattering, where shorter wavelengths are scattered more effectively than longer wavelengths.


Which colour refracts more in a prism yellow or blue?

Blue refracts the most in a prsm than yellow


Does blue light have a greater speed than red light?

Blue light is diffracted more than red. The way I remember is by thinking about the waves being closer together in the blue light and knowing that each wave interacts with the whatever is causing the diffraction (grating or object). More waves in a given area means more interaction which means more diffraction.


What and what makes together equals to light blue?

Why does red light use more energy than blue light?

no red uses more energy


Is blue more popular than red?

yes teal and light blue is much more popular than red right now


Which is more refracted between the red and blue light using the principles of refraction?

Blue light is more refracted than red light because the refractive index of a material depends on the wavelength of light, with shorter wavelengths bending more. Blue light has a shorter wavelength than red light, so it experiences greater bending when passing through a medium.


What is the physical difference between red light and blue light?

Does blue light carry more energy per photon than red light?

Yes it does.


How do the frequencies of blue light or red light compare?

Blue light has a higher frequency than red light. This means that blue light has shorter wavelengths and carries more energy compared to red light. Additionally, blue light is more likely to scatter in the atmosphere, leading to effects like blue skies during the day.
