Wavelength and Frequencies of colour

Colour Visibility

Colour is made up with it own distinct frequency and wavelengths.

Since colour is made up of wavelengths and frequency to measure, unit of cycle or wave per second can be applied.

When we examine, light travel in a wave form like that of an oceans, that dose not mean that the properties light used for the travelling is from light, no is not from light but is from wavelength and frequency we understand, that wavelength is the distance between the same wave or adjacent waves.

Point to know also is that each of the wave are made up of different wavelength and vibrational speed.

But the different wavelength of wave and vibrational speed come together to form electromagnetic spectrum.

Light also travel in form of wave.

The number of wave or wavelength that pass via a given point per second is used to determine the frequency.

Light travel in the same speed, but colour possess different type of wavelengths and frequency. The differences in the wavelengths and frequency of colour is determined by the type of colour, e.g, white colour have different wavelength and frequency compared with that of black colour.

The visibility of colour of light when pass through prisms occur as a result of their differences of wavelengths and frequency.

The differences in the wavelengths and frequency of colour can be compared to that of radio frequency, that is the reason you can only catch different radio with different frequency. When two radio said to have the same frequency within the same geographical zone, the radios are save to have chamed frequency. So radio travel in different wavelength and frequency, that is what is also applicable to colour. That why each type of colour have it region where can be visible to the eyes.
