RED
Different wavelengths on the spectrum are seen as different colors within the visible light section of the spectrum.
It falls within the following approximate range of frequencies:
Selective reflectivity occurs when the wavelength of the light is equal in length. Hence 410nm will be highly reflected. Mood rings exhibit a similar effect by using chiral nematic liquid crystals.
The color spectrum is part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The color spectrum, often referred to as 'visible light' is only part of it. It is called visible light because it is the only spectrum that we can see with our eyes (we can't see x-rays, radiowaves, etc). The colors within it come in the order of ROYGBIV : Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.
There are an infinite number of wavelengths above visible, below visible, and within visible. Since reality has infinite resolution, we can imagine varying the wavelength with infinite division. To call out bands of wavelength: Ultraviolet, X-rays, & Gamma rays.
No, red light has the longest wavelength within the visible light spectrum.
No, red light has the longest wavelength within the visible light spectrum.
The color RED has the longest wavelenth, and the color VIOLET has the shortest wavelenth. ---- Also Wavelenth is inversely propotional to frequency, so we can also say that color VIOLET has longest frequency and color RED has the shortest. VIBGYOR V-Violet (Highest Frequency, Shortest Wavelenth) I-Indigo B-Blue G-Green Y-Yellow O-Orange R-Red (Highest Wavelenth,Shortest Frequency)
The ultraviolet spectrum is 'beyond' (ultra) the violet part of the visible spectrum, that is, beyond the short end of the wavelength range. The infrared spectrum is 'within' (infra) the long end of the wavelength range. The two terms have nothing to do with color, which defines the visible spectrum between violet and red.
The human eye can only detect electromagnetic radiation in the visible spectrum, Typically, wavelengths of 390 to 750 nm fall within the visible spectrum. Radiation with these wavelengths are called visible light or simply light.
Violet light has a short wavelength, high frequency, and high energy. Red light has a much higher wavelength than violet light.
The visible spectrum is one band within the full range of electromagnetic radiation.
The colour of an object is determined by the wavelengths of light it reflects. An object that is purley one wavelength (lets say a specific wavelength in the blue part of the spectrum) would be absorbing all visable wavelengths except that specific blue wavelength.
Wavelengths in the range of 0.4 - 0.7 microns are visible.
Different wavelengths on the spectrum are seen as different colors within the visible light section of the spectrum.
Within the range of visible light, it's the light with the shortest wavelength (highest frequency). That's theviolet end of the spectrum. Past that, ultraviolet light, which is invisible, has higher energy.
Color is the visual perception of the spectrum of light by light receptors. Electromagnetic radiation is identified by its wavelength and intensity, and when it falls within the ranges which the eye can perceive then we see light (color). That visible light spectrum includes the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet.
