Here's why:
* Wavelength and Color: The color we see is determined by the wavelength of light that reaches our eyes.
* Visible Spectrum: The visible spectrum is the range of colors that humans can see, ranging from red (longest wavelength) to violet (shortest wavelength).
Think of it like this: Imagine a rainbow. Red is on one end, and violet is on the other. Violet is the "tightest" packed color, with the most waves squeezed into a given space.
