Best Answer

No the speed of light is independent of the color.

The speed of light is dependent on the optical refractive index of the material or medium it is travelling through (in a vacuum light of any color has a speed equal to about 299,792,458 meters / second)

Does color of a laser affects the velocity of the light wave projected by a laser?

No. Light travels at the same speed no matter what.

No.


Does the color of the laser affect the velocity of the light wave projected by the laser?

No, velocity and color are independent. Color is determined by frequency, and speed is determined by what material the light is traveling through.


Does the color of a laser affect the velocity?

Light always travels at the same speed, the speed of light. At least in vacuum. In a medium light will travel at a slower pace, and the speed decrease is dependent on the color (wavelength) of the light. This is because the refractive index (which determines how fast light can travel through a medium) is color dependent.


Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of a light wave projected by the laser?

Colors are determined by the wavelengths but all wavelengths travel at the same speed. So no, colors do not affect the velocity of light.


A narrow beam of light that travels in a straight line is a?

A laser


Why wouldn't we see a laser beam coming?

By definition, a laser travels at the speed of light. As soon as one sees it, it has already arrived via visual light.


How does light travels on a telephone call?

Light travels through what is fiber optic cabling. The cables are internally filled with long flexible tubes that are made of glass. The laser light travels through an individual glass tubing.

ummm, no. that's probably the dumbest thing Ive ever heard.Lasers use light rays of set wavelengths so I guess your answer is the dumbest answer I've ever heard.
