Red Definition from Encyclopedia Dictionaries & Glossaries

Wikipedia English - The Free Encyclopedia
Red
Red is any of a number of similar colors evoked by light consisting predominantly of the longest wavelengths of light discernible by the human eye, in the wavelength range of roughly 625–750 nm. Longer wavelengths than this are called infrared, or below red and cannot be seen by human eyes.

In human color psychology, red is associated with energy and blood, and emotions that stir the blood, including angerpassion, and love.

Red is used as one of the additive primary colors of light, complementary to cyan, in RGB color systems. Red is also one of the subtractive primary colors of RYB color space but not CMYK color space.
