Question

why does green light slow down more than orange light does when passing through an object?
green light has longer wavelengths than orange light.
green light has fewer particles than orange light.
green light refracts less than orange light.
green light has a higher frequency than orange light.

Explanation:

The speed of light in a medium is related to its frequency. Higher - frequency light interacts more with the medium's atoms and slows down more. Green light has a higher frequency than orange light in the visible spectrum, so it slows down more when passing through an object.

Answer:

Green light has a higher frequency than orange light.
