Ultraviolet light extends for quite a ways up the electromagnetic spectrum after visible violet ends. Its frequencies are higher. Wavelengths from 400nm to 50nm covering 4 groups of UV.

Which radiation is the range of electromagnetic waves with frequencies higher than violet on the visible spectrum?
-- ultraviolet -- X-rays -- gamma rays
Are X-rays and Gamma rays higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Yes, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays.
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.
Is ultraviolet radiation a higher or lower energy radiation than visible light?
Ultraviolet radiation is of higher energy than visible light. Ultra-violet suggests that it is above violet in the spectrum, and the colour violet is the uppermost region of visible light.
Which type of light rays cause plastic bags to deteriorate?
The ultra violet frequencies, which are slightly higher (shorter wavelength) than visible light. They also cause sunburn.
Higher frequencies ultraviolet waves or infrared waves?
Ultraviolet is higher frequency, then visible light, then infrared.
Where is visible light along the EM spectrum?
Right between infrared and ultraviolet. It has higher frequencies than infrared; lower frequencies than ultraviolet.
Which has the higher frequencies ultraviolet or infrared?
Ultraviolet
Which radiation is the range of electromagnetic waves with frequencies higher than violet on the visible spectrum?
-- ultraviolet -- X-rays -- gamma rays
Are X-rays and Gamma rays higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Yes, X-rays and gamma rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays.
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.
Which color registers the highest frequencyshortest wave length?
In visible light, that would be blue light. But please note that there are also higher frequencies, not visible for the naked eye - ultraviolet, x-rays, gamma rays.
Do x rays have higher frequencies than ultraviolet rays?
Yes.
Do gamma waves have higher frequencies than ultraviolet waves?
Yes, they do.
Do microwaves have higher frequencies than ultraviolet waves?
yes
Which electromagnetic waves have higher frequencies than ultraviolet waves?
Ultra violet light starts just above the visible violet.
At about what wavelength frequency do you start having bodily injury?
Ultraviolet and higher frequencies of EMR cause injury Inrared will cook you very nicely. Visible light is mainly reflected
