The visible color violet has the shortest wavelength. Just remember Roy G. Biv where the "R" means red, "o" means orange, "y" means yellow, "G" means green, "B" means blue, "i" means indigo, and "v" means violet. :)

What Photons with the highest energy have the blank?

The highest energy photons have the shortest wavelength, which is in the gamma ray range. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation that have the highest energy and shortest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.


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.


Electromagnetic waves whose photons carry the highest energy also have the:?

shortest wavelengths


Is gamma radiation a high energy electrons?

No. It is electromagnetic radiation, beyond the violet end of the visible spectrum.


Photons with the highest energy have?

Photons with the highest energy have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies. These photons are known as gamma rays and are produced by processes such as nuclear reactions and particle interactions. They are the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation.


Are the most energetic photons gamma rays?

Yes, gamma rays are the most energetic photons in the electromagnetic spectrum. They have the highest frequency and shortest wavelength, carrying a lot of energy due to their high frequency. They are produced by nuclear reactions, such as those in stars and radioactive decay.


What type of electromagnitic waves has the greatest energy of photon?

Gamma rays have the greatest energy of photons among all electromagnetic waves. They are the most energetic and have the shortest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.


Photons with lowest energy have the?

-- longest wavelength -- lowest frequency


Photons with the highest energy have the longest period?

No, the energy of a photon is directly related to its frequency, not its period. Photons with the highest energy have the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency. Period is the time taken to complete one full cycle of a wave, and it is inversely related to frequency.


The color of light is determined by its?

Wavelength, or alternatively its frequency.


Why cant light of 500 nm be given off from hydrogen?

Hydrogen, like all elements, have a characteristic distance between energy levels. The atom can only accept photons of energy that match that distance and then that light is emitted. 500 nm does not match the wavelength of light that matches the wavelength corresponding to the energy gap in hydrogen.


Why are the photons that emerge from the Sun's surface visible-light photons and infrared-light photons rather than gamma-ray photons?

Photons do not come in different types like infared-photons etc. they are just the wavelength that the photons are at and nuclear fusion just happens to emit photons at a particular wavelength
