Yes, radar waves are radio waves and too long for the eye to see (off the red end of the visible spectrum) and X rays are too short to see (off the blue/violet end of the visible spectrum).

What parts of the electromagnetic spectrum do you use the most?
Quite simply, the Microwave Oven uses the Microwave part of the spectrum.
What are the regions of electromagnetic spectrum?
Radio waves, Radar, Microwaves, Infared, Ultraviolet, X-rays, and Gamma Rays
What is a basic difference between sunlight and natural light?
Raw sunlight composed of wide range of electro-magentic spectrum this include infrared spectrum (far left) to gammy ray spectrum (far right). Earth's atmosphere and magnetic shield filter most of the harmful far right spectrum and only allows upto Ultra Violet range. This resulting in natural light. So I guess you can say natural light is what ever sunlight that gets passed through the atmosphere and the magnetic shield. However, we gets to see only a small portion of the spectrum of natural light called visible spectrum. There are lot of different behavior within the electro-magnetic spectrum. Some waves bounch off the atmosphere and ground and it is used for radar. Some waves curve around objects and we call it radio.
What are the properties of electromagnetic waves and interactions that make Doppler radar possible?
Doppler radar wouldn't be possible if the speed of light were infinite. Also it wouldn't be possible if the electromagnetic waves didn't reflect on objects. Also it helps a lot if those electromagnetic waves have a particular frequency as opposed to a wide spectrum. --Some person named Adrian who did the research
What is the composition of white light on sunlight?
For our purpose here, light is a radiation. What the human eye recognizes as visible light is in fact a very small portion (less than 1 percent) of Maxwell's electromagnetic spectrum -- between on one side the infra-reds, the micro waves, radar waves, and radio waves; and on the other, the ultra-violets, X-rays, and gamma rays. The most important source of visible light is the sun. Sunlight has been the energy by which life evolved and after which, therefore, photosensitivity modeled itself. It constitutes, then, the ultimate radiation, the one that makes the greatest possible use of the receptivity potential of circadian biological systems. http://www.din.umontreal.ca/courchesne/fragile7.html With regards, Andriy Hryshchenko.
Are radar waves too long to be seen?
Yes. The visible spectrum of light is much shorter than the shortest radar (radio) wave.
What parts of the electromagnetic spectrum do you use the most?
Quite simply, the Microwave Oven uses the Microwave part of the spectrum.
What instrument is used to monitor weather conditions from the outer space?
Many instruments can be used The visible light spectrum cameras Infrared cameras Spectrometers Radar
What makes a stealth plane unable to be seen on radar?
Stealth aircraft are extremely hard to detect on radar because they use a variety of advanced technologies that reduce reflection/emission of radar, infrared, visible light, radio-frequency spectrum, and audio. Early stealth aircraft were aerodynamically unstable.
What are the regions of electromagnetic spectrum?
Radio waves, Radar, Microwaves, Infared, Ultraviolet, X-rays, and Gamma Rays
What determines location of precipitation and clouds?
A combination of visible light imagery and weather radar.
All Electromagnetic radiation?
Transverse waves
Which waves have lower frequency radar waves or visible waves?
Radar waves have a lower frequency that light waves.The frequency of a light wave is related to wavelength and speed by the equation c = »½. The color of a light wave is also determined by the frequency. The amplitude and brightness are not related to the frequency.
Can someone give Examples of devices that need to reflect light to work?
Mirrors. Lasers. Interferometers. Radar (just not visible light).
