Can people see heat?
Not directly. Light is a by product of heat. So anything which produces light is a visible indication of heat. Heat can also produce a shimmering effect as it aggitates air molecules changing the airs density which is visible to human eyes.
Where does infrared heat come from?
Infrared lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared waves that are near to visible light do not generate heat and are used in TV remote controls. Infrared waves that are far from the visible end of the light spectrum are thermal and generate heat. The infrared heat from the sun, a lamp or a radiator is a type of far infrared radiation.
Can a mirror reflect fire?
It can reflect the visible light of a fire, and the heat.
What has more heat uv or iv?
UV (ultraviolet) radiation, with wavelengths shorter than visible light, is not heat. IV (intravenous) medication is usually administered at room temperature. IR (infrared) radiation, with wavelengths longer than visible light, is heat.
When electricity passes through the thin wire in a lightbulbit is changed to what?
The electric energy is converted to heat. Part of this heat is then radiated off as visible light.
What is the difference between light rays and heat radation?
Light rays are visible and have higher frequency compared to that of heat radiation Heat radiation is nothing but infra red which is not visible to human eyes. They have longer wavelength compared to that of visible light

What type of heat transfer is invisible and visible lights?
radiation
What do you use to make invisible ink visible?
if its milk you heat it
Which layer of the sun gives off heat and light?
The photosphere gives off heat and visible light.
What type of radiation do human bodies give off?
Everything, including the human body, emits heat waves. Not everything emits radiation though.
Where does the heat come from in a volcano?

What EM waves are emitted by fire?
Light (visible) and heat (infrared)

Does heat have shorter or longer wavelength than light?
Heat has longer wavelength / lower frequency than visible light.
