They are all different wavelengths and frequencies.

It is called this because humans can detect it with the naked eye.

How long or short the wavelengths are determines the color of visible light.

like how the sky is blue because it has a shorter wavelength than the colors we see at sunset, and blue is more widespread.

Hope this helps you out!!:)))
