Is the wavelength of x-rays longer or shorter then the wavelengths of visible light?
"shorter"
Is visible light longer or shorter then rays?
Visible light is made of rays. There are rays with wavelengths that are shorter than visible light and other with longer wavelength.
Does visible light have longer wavelengths than nonvisible?
Longer than some non-visible ... like ultraviolet and X-rays ... and shorter than other non-visible ... like radio and infrared.
Does ultraviolet light have long or short wavelengths?
The wavelengths for UV light are shorter than for visible light, but much longer than for x-rays or gamma rays.
In the electromagnetic spectrum what is the radiation on either side of visible light?
ultraviolet radiation and infrared radiation
Why does an apple look red to the human eye?
The color red, whether in an apple or anywhere else, corresponds to a certain range of wavelengths of light, which are the longer wavelengths of the visible spectrum. Blue is composed of the shorter wavelengths.
What wavelengths are longer than light but shorter than radio waves?
Infrared light, microwaves and radio waves have wavelengths longer than visible light. Radio waves have the longest wavelength.
Are green wavelengths longer than orange wavelengths?
Sound waves are much longer then light waves.
Which wavelength is longer ultraviolet or light?
The wavelengths of visible light are longer than ultraviolet wavelengths.
Light energy with wavelengths longer than visible red?
Light energy with wavelengths longer than visible red is infrared light.
What telescope does not use visual light energy?
Radio telescopes and infra-red telescopes operate at longer wavelengths/lower frequencies than visible light. Ultraviolet telescopes operate at shorter wavelengths/higher frequencies than visible light.
What has more heat uv or iv?
UV (ultraviolet) radiation, with wavelengths shorter than visible light, is not heat. IV (intravenous) medication is usually administered at room temperature. IR (infrared) radiation, with wavelengths longer than visible light, is heat.
