Light is part of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. It is the range of the

spectrum that the human eye can see. It's wavelength goes from about

380 nm to about 740 nm. The different colors of light belong to different

wavelengths. You'll find violet on the short wavelength side and red on the

long wavelength side. Below the wavelength of 380 nm you find Ultra Violet

light and above 740 nm you find the Infra red light, both not visible to

the human eye.
