How does the wavelength of infrared compare with the wavelength of ultraviolet waves?

Infra red have longer wavelength compared to ultra violet.


What are the color of the rainbow from shorter wavelength to longer?

Begin with violet. End with red.


What has a longer wavelength red or green?

Red light has the longest wavelength that's visible to the eye.Violet light, just past blue in the rainbow, has the shortest wavelengththat's visible to the eye. It's roughly half the size of a wave of red light.


Which end of the visible electromagnetic spectrum has longer wavelength Red or Blude?

Deep dark red is the visible light with the longest wavelength. Violet is the visible light with the shortest wavelength.


What is the relationship between the color of light and its wavelength?

Each color has a wavelength and frequency associated with it. We're familiar with the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. These colors range from longer wavelength (lower frequency) red up through shorter wavelength (higher frequency) violet. As one moves up through those colors from red to violet, the color is an indication to relative wavelength.


Does violet have a longer wavelength than blue?

No. Violet has a shorter wavelength than Blue.


Should red light waves have a longer wavelength th violet light waves?

Yes.


How does light become coloured?

Light's color depends on its wavelength. Shorter wavelengths make light more red, while longer make it more violet colored. Red light has a wavelength of approximately 700 nm, while violet light has a wavelength of 400 nm.


Waves diffract the most when their wavelength is Question 1 answers?

Diffraction angle is roughly proportional to wavelength (see ref.), so for a given order minimum, red diffracts more than violet light. But red is the longer wavelength, not the shorter. LONGER


Which of the following color has the shortest wavelength?

Violet has the shortest wavelength while red has the longest.


Is the wavelength of infra-red light to short to be seen?

Visible light has the spectrum VIBGYOR. Violet is at one extreme having highest frequency and red is at the other end having least frequency. Less frequency means having longest wavelength, since wavelength and frequency are inversely related. As we go beyond violet then it is named as ultraviolet. Same way as we go beyond red, then it known as infra red. So its wavelength has to be greater than that of red. Hence longer wavelength for IR radiations. IR is what we call 'thermal' radiation, in other words, 'heat'.


Is red shortest wavelength?

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.
