Visible Light Spectrum: Difference between revisions

Visible light waves are the only electromagnetic waves we can see. We see these waves as the colors of the rainbow. Each color has a different wavelength. Red has the longest wavelength and violet has the shortest wavelength. When all the waves are seen together, they make white light.

The higher the spectrum of frequency that exists within an electromagnetic wave, the shorter the actual waveform becomes. We may better understand this through the charts of the visible light spectrum that show most of the color waves that humans can see with their 3D eyes.
