Different wavelength are involved.

Explanation:

If magnesium burns with a bright white flame, one can conclude that different wavelengths accompany the electron transitions for the magnesium atom.

When an atom burns, the electrons in it are excited.
They give out characteristic light commensurate with their energy.
A white light is made up of different combinations of wavelength of radiations.
When we see a white light we can infer that different joined together in the emission observed.
