To Explain: Whether the red
Answer to Problem 23A
The red light has mixture of frequencies.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction: Red light has a longer wavelength in the entire spectrum. It is also less scattered by the small suspended particles that are present in the air or atmosphere.
Red is color that is the result of the sum of the entire released spectrum of colors. Hence, we can say the red light is a mixture of frequencies.
Conclusion: The red color or light has a mixture of frequencies.
