What determines the color of an light?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

What determines the color of skin, eyes, and hair is the chemical melanin. The more melanin that your body produces then the darker your hair, skin, and eyes are going to be. People whose bodies don't produce enough melanin tend to have light skin, hair and eyes. There are also people whose bodies don't produce melanin at all and they are referred to as albino. They usually exhibit traits such as light blonde, almost white hair, very fair skin, and red eyes.

Answer 3

The color of light is determined by its wavelength. Shorter wavelengths correspond to colors such as blue and violet, while longer wavelengths correspond to colors like red and orange. The human eye perceives different wavelengths as different colors.

Answer 4

Which wavelenghts it absorbs and radiates.

Answer 5

Frequency determines color. Frequency is determined by the origin of the photon, i.e. emitted from an excited atom.

Answer 6

Its Wavelength, which is affected by its speed and frequency

Answer 7

Their frequency.

Answer 8

Wavelengths

Answer 9

wavelength.
