C. C D E F G
A B

1. Which color has the highest frequency?

2. Which color has the highest energy?
3. Which color has the longest wavelength?
4. Which color has the shortest wavelength?
D. Write TRUE if the statement is correct but if
false, change the underlined word to make the
whole statement correct.

1. Red has the greatest refractive index among the

seven colors.
2. Violet has the lowest refractive index among them.
3. Red is the least bent color among them.
4. Violet is the most bent color among them.
5. The greater the refractive index of the color of light,
the more bending is observed.
A. Yes or No

1. Does white light split into different colors? YES

2. Do all colors of light travel at the same speed
in a vacuum? YES
3. Do all colors of light have the same energy? NO
4. Does blue have the shortest wavelength? NO
5. Does red have the longest wavelength? YES
B.

1. List the colors of white light in the order of

decreasing wavelength. ROYGBIV
2. List the colors of white light in the order of
decreasing energy. VIBGYOR
3. State the relationship among frequency,
energy and wavelength of colors. The energy of a wave is
directly proportional to its frequency, but inversely proportional to its wavelength.
The greater the energy, the larger the frequency and the shorter (smaller) the
wavelength.
