As noted in class, indigo was added to the rainbow by Newton to generate a seven color rainbow. Looking at a spectrum, however, there really is no visually different color at the position of indigo. If indigo were to be replaced, what color would you add to the other six rainbow colors, the spectrum, and why?
period τ = 1 ÷ (period τ)
frequency f = 1 ÷ (frequency f )
velocity ѵ = wavelength λ * frequency f
