Frequency
The frequency of a wave is determined by the number of complete waves, or wavelengths, that pass a given point each second. The colour RED has a frequency of around 430 trillion vibrations a second, whereas Violet has a much higher frequency, so each violet wave would pass a given point much quicker than the colour RED. All light travels at the same speed but each color has a different wavelength and frequency. Frequency of waves To try and explain the frequency of colour a little further, imagine that an ocean with waves that are 10 meters apart that crash on the shore every 5 seconds could be classed as having a frequency of 5, whereas an ocean of waves 10 meters apart that crashed on the shore every 10 seconds, would be classed as having a frequency of 10. The more frequent the waves, the HIGHER the frequency. It is these different wavelengths and frequencies that cause the different colours of light to separate and become visible when passing through a prism. This can be looked upon in the same way that radio waves have different frequencies and wavelengths, certain stations can only be listened to at a particular frequency or wavelength. So the colour blue - say, can only be visible at a particular frequency and wavelength range. The higher the frequency, of the colour, the closer together the waves of energy are. Higher frequency colours are - violet - indigo - bluelower frequency colours are - yellow - orange - red.A high frequency light wave has a higher energy than that of a low frequency light wave

Wave length
A wavelength is the distance between the same locations on adjacent waves. As an example; an ocean full of waves, that were 10 meters apart, could be said as, having a wavelength of 10, whereas an ocean of waves that were 30 meters apart would be said as having a wavelength of 30. The same applies to light. The colour RED has a wavelength of around 700 nanometers long - one wave spans only 7 ten millionths of a meter! Whereas, Violet has a much shorter wavelength, so each violet wave would span a much shorter distance. Waves of Energy Within the Universe, positive and negative charges (waves of energy), are constantly vibrating and producing electromagnetic waves traveling at an incredibly high speed.(186,000 miles per second, the speed of light.) Each of these waves has a different wavelength and speed of vibration. Together they form the electromagnetic spectrum. Light travels in waves. A wavelength is the distance between the same locations on adjacent waves.

Light energy
The amount of energy in a given light wave is proportionally related to its frequency, thus a high frequency light wave has a higher energy than that of a low frequency light wave. Colour is made up of different Wavelengths and Frequencies Each colour has its own particular wavelength and frequency. Each colour can be measured in units of cycles or waves per second. If we can imagine light traveling in waves like that in an ocean, it is these waves that have the properties of wavelength and frequency.

The prism
To physically see this, we need a prism. When light from the sun passes through a prism, the light is split into the seven visible colours by refraction. Refraction is caused by the change in speed experienced by a wave of light when it changes medium.

Banana Bake Recipe
Serving :4 Ingredients
- 4 large Del Monte® banana
- ¼ cup all purpose flour
- ¼ cup light brown sugar, firmly packet
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- 1/8 tsp. salt
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, cut into little pieces
- 4 individual serving baking dishes
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
Direction Preheat oven to 400° degrees. Slice bananas in 1/4 inch pieces. Place the bananas cut side down in individual serving prepared baking dishes. Place dry ingredients into a medium-mixing bowl. Add the butter to the dry ingredients until the mixture is crumbly. Spread the crumble mixture over the bananas in an even layer, pressing down slightly. Place the dish in the oven and bake about 10 to 10 to 15 minutes.

Similar to US, Mother's Day celebration in New Zealand take place on the second Sunday of May. Since the concept has been taken from the west, the
celebration idea and the reason behind it are also the same. New Zealanders celebrate Mother's Day with great emotions and feelings. They realize that the contribution of a mother in a child’s life is immeasurable and that there needs to be a day that is completely dedicated to such a wonderful being. For them, Mother's Day commemorates the efforts of a mother and the role she plays in a person's life.
Though Mother's Day has it roots in the West, the idea or the concept is fast catching in New Zealand as well. The people there celebrate the day with great pomp and show and hold a great zeal and enthusiasm for it. On Mother's Day, the environment in New Zealand is totally colorful. Children undertake special efforts to please their mother. In this country also, commercialization has brought about a lot of awareness of the day, thereby increasing its importance all the more. The people have been made aware in advance about the coming of the auspicious day.
From giving flowers to taking Moms out for dinner, to having a family picnic, the options for New Zealanders are aplenty. On this special day, they not only remember their mother, but also other women who have contributed to their life, like their grand mother, aunt, nanny, etc. The day not only revives the bond between a mother and a child, but also brings them closer. On this day, children also give rest to their mother from regular chores and take over her responsibilities. In short, Mother's Day is a happy occasion in New Zealand.
