From top to bottom: Green is on the top Yellow is in the middle Red is on the bottom There you go!

∙ 15y agoThe colors of a traffic light are arranged from top to bottom in the following order: red, yellow (or amber), and green.
A red and green traffic light cannot be lit up at the same time because they are designed to be mutually exclusive in order to prevent confusion for drivers. If both colors were illuminated simultaneously, it would lead to ambiguous signals and potentially dangerous situations on the road.
The colors of light in order from fastest traveling to slowest are violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red. This is based on their respective wavelengths, with shorter wavelength light moving faster than longer wavelength light.
The order of light waves is the same order as the colors of the rainbow. The order is Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. The colors are ordered based on their wavelength, with red being the longest wavelength, and Violet being the shortest. Source: http://science.hq.nasa.gov/kids/imagers/ems/visible.html
White light is a combination of all colors of the visible spectrum. When white light passes through a prism, it is refracted (bent) and separated into its component colors due to their different wavelengths. Each color of light has a specific wavelength, which causes it to bend at a different angle, resulting in the separation of white light into its various colors.
In a traffic light system, electrical energy is converted to light energy in order to illuminate the traffic lights, and then light energy is converted back to electrical energy in the sensors that detect vehicles and trigger changes in the light signals. Additionally, kinetic energy is converted to electrical energy in some traffic lights when vehicles drive over sensors installed on the road surface.
The amount by which light is bent depends on its wavelength. The colors are arranged in the order of their wavelengths.

The colors of visible light
That's the sequence of the colors of light in order from longest to shortest wavelengths.
The colors of visible light can be arranged in order of increasing energy as follows: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.

The colors of the rainbow are arranged in a specific order due to the way light is refracted and dispersed by water droplets in the atmosphere. This process separates the different wavelengths of light, creating the distinct bands of colors in the rainbow, with red appearing on the outer edge and violet on the inner edge. This order of colors is a result of the varying wavelengths of light being bent at different angles.
The colors of visible light are arranged in order from longest wavelength to shortest wavelength. Red has the shortest, and violet the longest, and the other colors fall in between.Infrared radiation lies just below red on the electromagnetic spectrum, and ultraviolet lies just above violet.
Traffic light colours have different shapes in order to inform the colour blind what colour the light is.
treat it like a 4way stopp
A red and green traffic light cannot be lit up at the same time because they are designed to be mutually exclusive in order to prevent confusion for drivers. If both colors were illuminated simultaneously, it would lead to ambiguous signals and potentially dangerous situations on the road.
Colors are ordered by frequency, or equivalently, by wavelength.
