• Violet light waves have a smaller frequency.

• Violet light waves have the same frequency.

• Violet light waves have a higher frequency.

Gamma rays have a higher frequency than visible light waves. What can you conclude from this?

• Gamma rays carry more energy than visible light waves.

• Gamma rays carry less energy than visible light waves.

• Gamma rays can't be seen; visible light rays can.

• Red, green, and blue

• Cyan, magenta, and yellow

• Orange, mauve, and purple

• Blue, red, and yellow

How is mixing the primary pigment colors together different from mixing the primary colors of light together?

• Mixing the primary pigment colors gives you black; mixing the primary colors of light gives you white light.

• Mixing the primary pigment colors gives you white; mixing the primary colors of light gives you black light.

• Mixing the primary pigment colors gives you brown; mixing the primary colors of light gives you blue, green, and red.

• Mixing the primary pigment colors gives you a spectrum of color; mixing the primary colors of light gives you no color.
