How are ultraviolet waves different from light waves?
Ultraviolet waves are smaller than light waves.
Which of these kinds of electromagnetic waves has the lowest frequency x-rays infrared light ultraviolet light blue light or yellow light?
infrared light:)
What is next to ultraviolet in the light spectrum?
Starting at ultraviolet, longer waves are waves of visible violet light, and shorter waves are X-rays.
Higher frequencies ultraviolet waves or infrared waves?
Ultraviolet is higher frequency, then visible light, then infrared.
What types of light bulb converts ultraviolet waves in to visible light waves?
fluorescent
How are ultraviolet waves different from violet waves?
Ultraviolet (UV) light has a higher frequency (and a shorter wavelength and shorter period) than violet light. It is more energetic, too. We can't see UV light as our eyes only see up through violet. The shorter wavelengths of the UV light are something we cannot detect with our eyes. We can see (in order of increasing frequency) red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet light. The UV light is outside the range of our vision.
What are ultraviolet waves?
Light waves that are of slightly higher frequency than you can see.
Which type of waves is not reflected by the ionosphere?
ultraviolet light
Which of these kinds of electromagnetic waves has the lowest frequency x rays infrared light ultraviolet light blue light or yellow light?
From the items on that list, infrared light has the lowest frequency, and X-rays have the highest.
What waves to insects use to find nectar?
Some insects use ultraviolet waves to find nectar. The ultraviolet light leaves marks on flowers, and the insects can sense them and find the nearby nectar.
How do you use ultraviolet waves in a sentence?
You may experience sunburned skin if you allow your skin to be exposed to the ultraviolet waves that penetrate the clouds on a cloudy day. Ultraviolet waves are at the opposite end of the visible light spectrum from infrared waves. Ultraviolet (UV) waves are longer than X-rays.
Do ultraviolet waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum?
Ultraviolet and visible light waves all travel at the same speed whenever they're all traveling through the same material.
