Question

Arrange the colors of visible light, green, red, and blue, in order of increasing wavelength.

Answer 1

Answer: The increasing wavelength of colors:

Red > Green > Blue

Explanation:

Wavelength: This is the property of wave which includes the distance between two consecutive crests or trough. This is denoted by the Greek letter Lambda and it is found by dividing the velocity of the wave with its frequency.

Wavelength of colours are

Violet: 400 - 420 nm

Indigo: 420 - 440 nm

Blue: 440 - 490 nm

Green: 490 - 570 nm

Yellow: 570 - 585 nm

Orange: 585 - 620 nm

Red: 620 - 780 nm
