Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The color of visible light is determined by its frequency and wavelength. Different colors correspond to light waves of different frequencies and wavelengths, with violet having the shortest wavelength (and highest frequency) and red having the longest wavelength (and lowest frequency). Amplitude affects the brightness of the light but not its color.
