Bot GPT 3.5 The two properties of a light wave that make color are wavelength and frequency.
Wavelength refers to the distance between two consecutive points of a wave, such as from the peak of one wave to the peak of the next wave. Different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors. For example, red light has a longer wavelength than blue light.
Frequency, on the other hand, measures the number of wave cycles that occur in a given amount of time. It is the rate at which waves pass a point. Similarly, different frequencies of light waves are associated with different colors. Higher frequencies correspond to colors like blue or violet, while lower frequencies are associated with colors like red or orange.
By varying the wavelength and frequency, light waves can create the entire spectrum of colors that are visible to the human eye.
