1. red light

   Red light refers to light with a wavelength approximately between 620-750 nanometers on the electromagnetic spectrum. This wavelength gives it a distinctive red color, visible to the human eye which is why it is often used in traffic signals, brake lights, and emergency vehicles. It has lower energy and frequency compared to other colors of light. In a broader sense, it is also often used to denote a command to stop or a warning sign.
