wavelenghts of energy
NOVANET!
It represent different in energy of photon at different colour range.
Different wavelength yield different colour whether we can see it or not. The evolution choose this range of light to be visible for abundant of such spectrum range from the sun while some animal can see light at lower wavelength to infrared especially for Nocturnal.
Energy content of a photon can simply express by Planck-Einstein equation
E = hc/L
where E = Energy in a photon h = Planck constant c = speed of light and L = wavelength
Longer wavelength -> Red = lesser energy
Shorer wavelength -> Violet = higher energy

What do the diff rent col ores of visible light represent?
Not quite sure what you mean by "represent"; physically, each color has a different frequency, and thus also a different wavelength.
What do different colors of visible light represent?
Different electromagnetic wavelengths/frequencies.
Is the frequeny of different colours of light is equal?
No, different colors of visible light have different frequency. For example, Violet color has highest frequency in visible spectrum and Red color has lowest.
Is color a characteristic of visible light that does not depend on the lights wavelength?
Different wavelengths of light have different colors.
What do the visible colars of light represent?
The frequency range of visible light.
Can humans detect visible light?
Answer is simply yes , human eyes is only sensitive to the visible light at the electromagnetic spectrum , however there is a different in wavelength and the frequency depending on the color of the visible light
What's the color of visible light?
Visible light includes any color that the eye can see.
Is color related to the frequency of a visible light wave?
Yes. Every different frequency (wavelength) of light is perceived as a different color by the human eye. Except in colorblind people, that is.
What is a combination of several different wavelengths of light traveling together?
When the visible light of all wavelengths are combined, it is called white light.
What is a color filter and how does it work?
Color filters transmit visible wavelengths of light. Different colors respond to different wavelengths of light. Some filters work by absorbing light, while others reflect.
What color of visible light has longest wavelength?
Red is the longest wavelength of visible light
What color of visible light has the longest wavelength?
Red is the longest wavelength of visible light
