in the electromagnetic spectrum visible light has a wavelength of about 400 (violet) to 700 (red) nanometers, or 1.4 millionth to 2.5 millionth of a metre.

whereas infrared light has a much longer wavelength of 150 micrometers or 6.6thousandth of a metre. even longer are the wavelengths of radio waves from 1 millimeter to 100kilometers.

Is ultraviolet radiation longest wavelength?

No, ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths compared to visible light and infrared radiation. The electromagnetic spectrum orders radiation from longest to shortest wavelength as radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.
