Red light and blue light both travel at 300 000 000 m/s (300 000 km/s)
They have different wavelengths (and thus different frequencies) with red light having the longest wavelength and smallest frequency.
Blue light carries more energy than red light

∙ 13y ago
Both red light and blue light are forms of visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum, with red light having longer wavelengths and lower energy compared to blue light. Despite their differences in wavelength and energy, both red and blue light travel at the same speed in a vacuum, which is the speed of light (approximately 3 x 10^8 meters per second).

Does blue light have travel at a different frequency than red light in the same medium?
No, blue and red light travel at the same speed in the same medium, but they have different frequencies. Blue light has a higher frequency than red light.
When red light is projected onto a white surface red light is reflected. Blue light will similarly be reflected as blue. When both are projected onto a white surface we see neither red nor blue. Is th?
When red light and blue light are both projected onto a white surface, they combine to create magenta light. Magenta light is a different color from red or blue, which is why we don't see red or blue individually in that situation.
Which has a higher velocity blue light or red light?
Both blue and red light travel at the same speed in a vacuum, which is the speed of light (approximately 3 x 10^8 m/s). However, blue light has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength compared to red light.
What color would white light appear viewed through red filter and pure blue?
White light viewed through a red filter would appear red, as the filter absorbs all colors except red. When viewed through a pure blue filter, the white light would appear black or very dark, as blue filters absorb all colors except blue.
Could you emit the same amount of light energy per second which must emit more photons per second a source of red light or a source of blue light?
A source of blue light would need to emit more photons per second to produce the same amount of energy as a source of red light. This is because blue light has higher energy photons, so fewer photons are needed to achieve the same total energy output as red light, which has lower energy photons.
Why is your 3ds showing both the red and the blue light at same time?
If your Nintendo 3DS is showing both the red and blue light at the same time, it means you have 2 different notifications. The red light means your battery is low, and the blue light means that you have received a notification.
Red and blue will absorb the same light?
Red and blue light will not absorb the same light. Red objects reflect red light and absorb other colors, while blue objects reflect blue light and absorb other colors.
Does blue light have travel at a different frequency than red light in the same medium?
No, blue and red light travel at the same speed in the same medium, but they have different frequencies. Blue light has a higher frequency than red light.
Is red denser then blue?
Photographically, both reflect about 50% of the white light falling on them, depending, of course, on their hue. A really dark blue would reflect far less than a light red, same with blue.

When red light and blue light are both projected onto a white surface, they combine to create magenta light. Magenta light is a different color from red or blue, which is why we don't see red or blue individually in that situation.
Can object reflect both red and blue light?
On stage in a theatre red light shines and clothes appear red, blue light is shone an clothes appear blue, what colour are they?
Which has a higher velocity blue light or red light?
Both blue and red light travel at the same speed in a vacuum, which is the speed of light (approximately 3 x 10^8 m/s). However, blue light has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength compared to red light.
Speed of red light and blue light in a vacuum?
In a vacuum the speed of red and blue light are the same as all light, 300,000,000m/s. Their frequency and wavelength will be different but the speed remains the same.
What color would white light appear viewed through red filter and pure blue?
White light viewed through a red filter would appear red, as the filter absorbs all colors except red. When viewed through a pure blue filter, the white light would appear black or very dark, as blue filters absorb all colors except blue.
What color do you get if you mix blue and red light?
Well mixing the colors red and blue give you the color purple....so I will say the same should happen with lights.
What if red light is passed through convex lens instead of blue light?
The red light would focus on a point in space at a greater in distance than the blue light would have been. Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light and therefore since both are travailing at the same speed (the speed of light), the longer wave red light finds it's focal point at a time slightly after the blue light would have. This effect shares some characteristics with the Doppler effect, although sound does not need obey the constant speed law as light light does.
Is red light slower than blue light?
No. Light travels at the same speed, regardless of color.
