On the wavelength
Explanation:
Visible light is just a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which classifies all the electromagnetic waves from shortest wavelength (gamma rays) to longest wavelength (radio waves).
Visible light refers to the part of the spectrum which has wavelength between 380 nm and 750 nm. These are the only electromagnetic wave that our eyes can see, and depending on their wavelength, they appear as a different color. In particular, each color corresponds to a different range of wavelengths:
Violet: 380-450 nm
Blue: 450-495 nm
Green: 495-570 nm
Yellow: 570-590 nm
Orange: 590-620 nm
Red: 620-750 nm
