Blue visible lights wave lengths are shorter then red

Talia Gardner · Answer 2

The blue visible light waves have a shorter wavelength than the red visible light waves. Since both the waves travel at the speed of light, which is a constant for a particular medium, their frequencies will be inversely related to their wavelength. This is given by the formula: speed = wavelength x frequency. Thus blue visible light will have a higher frequency than the red visible light.
