Red light has the longest wavelength that's visible to the eye.

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

Does the color red have a lower frequency than the color green?

Yes, red has a lower frequency than green. It therefore has a longer wavelength.


Does yellow light have a greater frequency than green light?

Orange has a longer wavelength than yellow. On the spectrum of visible light red is longest and violet is shortest.


Which color light has a longer wavelength?

The colour of visible light with the longest wavelength is red (approximately 700 nanometres).


What is the diffrence between the waves that make up bright green light and dim red light?

The bright green light has a higher frequency (shorter wavelength) and a smaller amplitude than the dim red light.


Is visible light a shorter or longer wavelength energy in this spectrum?

Shorter or longer than what ? The wavelength of visible light is shorter than that of radio and heat, and longer than the wavelength of X-ray and gamma radiation. And the wavelength of green light is shorter than red light but longer than blue light.


Does red or violet have a longer wavelength?

Red.


What color out of red yellow and green has the shortest wavelength?

Green has the shortest wavelength of those.


Are green wavelengths longer than orange wavelengths?

Sound waves are much longer then light waves.


What colour will it be if the wavelength gets longer?

red


Does the red light have a short or long wavelength?

Blue light has shorter wavelength than red light. Remember ROYGBIV? If you reverse the sequence - VIBGYOR, you have all the colors listed from shortest wavelength to longest wavelength in the visible spectrum. Or, you can just simply consult an electromagnetic (EM) spectrum.


Which light wavelength make it through glass faster?

Red light (longer wavelength)


What are two differences between the red and green electromagnetic wave in a rainbow?

The difference is the wavelength's of the two colors, Red is on the "right" end of the visible light spectrum and thus "bigger" wavelength about 640-700 nanometers while Green is more on the "left" side at around 500 nanometers.
