Which of the following colours has maximum wavelength

Which colour of light has the shorter wavelength-red or violet ?

The wavelength of green colour in air and violet colour in water are 5381 Å and 3042 Å respectively. If the wavelength of green colour in water is the same as the wavelength of violet colour in air, find its value. (Assume that refractive index for green and violet colour is approximately same)

The metal that produces red violet colour in the non - luminous flame is

If an electron has a wavelength, does it also have a colour?

Assertion (A): The light of violet colour deviates the most and the light of red colour the least, while passing through a prim. Reason (R):The refractive index in highest for red light and lowest for the violet light.

Arrange these colours in an increasing order of wavelength : red, violet, yellow, green

(i) mu=(c)/(v_m)=(vlambda)/(vlambda_m) where c: speed of light in vacuum v_m: speed of light in medium lambda: wavelength in vacuum lambda_m : wavelength in medium upsilon: frequency of light (ii) mu=((epsilonmu)/(epsilon_0mu_0))^(1/2) where epsilon: electric permittivity in free space epsilon: electric permittivity in medium mu_0: magnetic permeability in free space mu: magnetic permeability in medium (iii) mu=A+B/lambda^2 , where A and B are constants (iv) In case of VIBGYOR, wavelength increases from violet to red, refractive index decreases from violet to red. Wavelength for red-colour is maximum whereas refractive index is maximum for violet colour.

Focal lengths of a lens for violet, yellow and red colours are f_(v), f_(y) and f_(r) respectively. Calculate the dispersive power of the material of the lens.
