What is the range of light called?
The visible spectrum is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to (can be detected by) the human eye. Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light or simply light.
Is light the same thing as electromagnetic radiation?
Yes, visible light makes up the middle region of the Electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, light is a form electromagnetic radiation.
What is one type of electromagnetic radiation?
Light is the most common form of electromagnetic radiation that you see in your daily life.
What is Electromagnetic radiation that is emitted from the sun?
The University Corporation for Atomospheric Research's High Altitude Observatory reports, "The light or photons emitted from the Sun cover a broad spectrum from very long wavelengths such as radio to very short wavelengths such as xray." See the related link below for more information.
What is the Energy that travels across distances in the form of electromagnetic waves?
Energy transfered in the form of electromagnetic waves is classified according to wavelength of the radiation. Radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays are all forms of electromagnetic radiation.
What types of electromagnetic radiation has longer wavelengths than visible light?
infrared
In the electromagnetic spectrum what is the radiation on either side of visible light?
ultraviolet radiation and infrared radiation
What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength greater than that of light?
Radio, microwaves, radar, and infrared radiation have.
What is made up of electromagnetic radiation?
Electromagnetic radiation make light by the high energy that it produces that is able to be seen with the naked eye
Does Infrared radiation has a longer wavelength than visible light?
Because that's the name we have given to the electromagnetic radiation at the end of the spectrum with the longest waves.
Is radio waves a form of radiation?
Yes, radio waves are electromagnetic waves.They are in the part of the spectrum with the longer wavelengths, longer than microwaves, and visible light waves.
Is infrared radiation part of the electromagnetic radiation?
Yes it is. Infrared is the same physical phenomenon as radio, light, and microwaves. The only difference among them is their wavelengths (frequencies). Infrared is our name for electromagnetic radiation with wavelength just longer than red light ... long enough so that our eyes don't respond to it.
What do the wavelengths of light that our eyes can see make up?
The visible spectrum of the electromagnetic spectrum of radiation
What type of electromagnetic radiation has longer wavelengths than human eye can detect?
Heat, infra-red, microwaves and radiowaves
Which property spells the difference between infrared and ultraviolet radiation?
Ultraviolet radiation means:ultraviolet: radiation lying in the ultraviolet range; wave lengths shorter than light but longer than X rays. Infrared radiation means: electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than visible light but shorter than radio waves.
What is infared radiation?
A type of energy with wavelengths longer than visible light.
What is electromagnetic radiation with medium wavelengths called?
Look at the list of electromagnetic radiations; there is a large variety of them, but you'll have to decide for yourself what you consider "medium wavelength".
