Options
- A. Violet
- B. Blue
- C. Yellow
- D. Red
Answer
D. Red
Step-by-step solution
The energy of a photon is given by the relation E = hc . This shows that energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength of light. In the visible spectrum (VIBGYOR), red light has the maximum wavelength. Therefore, red light has the lowest energy. Answer: Red
