The flashlight you are using to find your phone is a green flashlight which isn't good for finding things in the dark. You decide to go grab your yellow flashlight instead. Which wave property differs in the two flashlights causing this difference in color? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

their wavelength

Explanation:

A wave refers to disturbances or vibrations that travel from one medium or vacuum to another in an organized way, while wavelength refers to the distance between two consecutive peaks of waves.

For example, the wavelength of green light is 550nm (nanometre), while that of yellow light is 580nm (nanometre).  

This difference in the color of the flashlights is visible to the human eyes because the human eye is believed to be able to detect any wavelengths of light from 700 nanometres to about 400 nm for violet light.
