Question

For her birthday, amy received flowers that had a dull red appearance. compared with the entire range of visible light waves, the flowers reflected relatively ________ frequency and ________ amplitude light waves.

Answer 1

The flowers reflect relatively low frequency and low amplitude light waves.
White light contains a spectrum of colors, and red light is at the beginning of this spectrum in terms of energy. This means that it has the lowest frequency, as the energy of a wave of light is directly proportional to its frequency.
The amplitude of a light wave gives a measure of how intense the light is. A dull light means that the amplitude of the wave is low.
