  • Dispersion of light: Color of least and most deviated rays.

    For visible light the largest wavelength is for red ray and thus the red light deviates least. The light of other color has the wavelengths in-between and hence deviates between the two and forms the spectrum.

  • Chlorophyll and Accessory Pigments

    Visible light is one small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The longer the wavelength of visible light, the more red the color. Likewise the shorter wavelengths are towards the violet side of the spectrum.

  • Wavelengths of the colors

    Red has higher wavelength than yellow. Higher wavelength will increase the absorbtivity of the matter so if it is exposed to a heat source it will get hotter than low wavelength colors.
