The energy of infrared waves is greater than the energy of radio waves. This is because infrared waves has a smaller wavelength compared to radio waves. The smaller the wavelength, the higher the energy.

The energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength.
Energy = Plank's constant x amplitude ÷ wavelength

What form of energy travels in varying wavelengths such as visible light infrared waves radio waves ultraviolet waves and X rays?
The electromagnetic spectrum includes visible light radio waves and infrared ultraviolet and x-rays.
Which wave has more energy out of microwaves radio waves infrared waves and visible light waves?
The radio spectrum for communications spans approximately from 150 kHz to 26 MHz. The visible light frequency range is at least 400 THz. No contest -- visible light is at least 15 million times higher in frequency. Energy = Planck's constant * frequency. Hence visible light carries a higher energy.
What is the difference between remote controls that use infrared light and those that use radio waves is?
One uses infrared light and the other uses radio waves. Hope this helps!
Is it true that infrared rays have a higher frequency than radio waves?
yes
Where are infrared waves found?
Everywhere. Literally. The universe is filled with infrared radiation and will be until the universe's temperature drops to absolute zero. As for where it is found in abundance : any place that feels warm to you.
Which type of electromagnetic wave has less energy than an infrared wave?
Waves with lower frequency: for example radio waves.
What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength greater than that of light?
Radio, microwaves, radar, and infrared radiation have.
What type of energy does the earth emit?
natural infrared radiation, and man-made radio energy
What are the diffrerent between infrared waves and radio waves?
Frequency, Length, Energy.
What type of invisible radiation from space can be detected from earth?
Long wave radio, short wave radio, microwave radio, heat, far infrared, near infrared, ultraviolet UV-A, ultraviolet UV-B, high energy X-rays, high energy gamma rays.
What other energy transfers energy the same way as infrared?
All electromagnetic energy (radio, light, X-rays, etc.) do the same.
Which forms of light are lower in energy and frequency than the light that your eyes can see?
infrared and radio :)
What are examples of electromagnetic energy?
Examples of electromagnetic energy are radio waves, Xrays, optical light waves, infrared waves, sunlight and lightening.
What form of energy travels in varying wavelengths such as visible light infrared waves radio waves ultraviolet waves and X rays?
The electromagnetic spectrum includes visible light radio waves and infrared ultraviolet and x-rays.
What type of energy being carried by an infrared wave?
Infrared waves produce heat when the interact with normal matter, so most people would say they carry heat. In fact, infrared radiation is electromagnetic energy, as are ultraviolet, visible light, radio waves and others.
