Yes. The longest visible wavelength / lowest visible frequency is

the last color you see on the red end of the 'rainbow'.

The shortest visible wavelength / highest visible frequency is

the last color you see on the violet end of the 'rainbow'.

These limits are not exactly the same for every human eye.

no, the shortest is Violet. Violet is the shortest and strongest. Red is the longest and weakest.

No. Infra red radiation has longer wavelength and then there are microwaves and radio waves whose wavelengths are longer still.

Is ultraviolet the shortest wavelength?

No. If the shortest wavelength is on the left end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is microwaves. if the shortest wavelength is on the right end of the spectrum, the shortest wavelength is gamma rays. I think it is microwaves because micro means small.


Which colour has the shortest wavelength?

Shortest wavelength means the highest frequency, meaning the photons have the highest energy. That is color violet. The violet light colors the skin brown. Red light with lower energy photons cannot do that.
