- Which end (blue or red) of the visible spectrum has the longer wavelength? Which has the higher frequency?arrow_forwardGo outside on a clear night, wait 15 minutes for your eyes to adjust to the dark, and look carefully at the brightest stars. Some should look slightly red and others slightly blue. The primary factor that determines the color of a star is its temperature. Which is hotter: a blue star or a red one? Explainarrow_forward7. If the atmosphere were twice as thick as it currently is (extending farther into space), what effect would this have on the color the sun would appear to be? It would look whiter It would look bluer It would have no effect It would look redderarrow_forward
