UV radiation carries more energy because it vibrates faster, i.e. it has a shorter wavelength. Because it carries more energy, it can do much more damage than visible light.
No, it is a type of electromagnetic radiation, which ultraviolet is part of as well.
Three forms of radiation from the sun are visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light. These different forms of radiation have varying wavelengths and energy levels that interact with the Earth's atmosphere and surface in different ways.
The three forms of radiation from the sun are infrared radiation, visible light, and ultraviolet radiation. Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths and is felt as heat, visible light is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see, and ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths and can cause sunburn and damage to the skin.
Fluorescent material absorbs ultraviolet radiation and re-emits it at longer visible wavelengths, producing a glowing effect. This phenomenon is called fluorescence, where the material appears to radiate light of a different color than the ultraviolet light initially absorbed.
Ultraviolet Radiation,Visible Light,Infared Radiation
The three forms of radiation from the sun are visible light, infrared radiation, and ultraviolet radiation. Visible light is responsible for the light we see, while infrared radiation and ultraviolet radiation are not visible to the human eye but have important effects on Earth's climate and environment.

Ultraviolet radiation , visible light and infrared radiation
ultraviolet radiation has a greater frequency than visible light, that is to say that it cycles ("travels up and down") more times per distance traveled. it can also be expressed as having a shorter wavelength (distance traveled during one cycle) than visible light
infrared and ultraviolet
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.
