~Wavelength~

 

 

 

 

A wavelength is a distance between two points in the same cycle.

 

The colours in wavelengths are:

  1. Purple 400 nanometers

  2. indigo 445 nm

  3. Blue 475 nm

  4. Green 510 nm

  5. Yellow 570 nm

  6. Orange 590 nm

  7. Red 650 nm

 

Wavelength are in the sky and the smallest the wavelength is, is the colour that scatters the most, and what we can see.

 

Microwaves have wavelengths too, their wavelength is 0.001 m. Television waves are 0.5 m, and radio waves are 100 m, radar waves are0.01 m, X-ray waves are 0.000 000 000 01 m, then infrared waves are 0.000 00 1 m and gamma waves are 0.000 000 000 000 1 m.
