Does ultraviolet have shoter wavelengths?
Compared to the visible light ultra violet has shorter wavelength
What wave length of light is the shortest?
Violet is actually the shortest wavelength, as you consider the color spectrum. After blue comes indigo, then violet. So blue is the third shortest. The color spectrum ranges from red to violet, with red being the longest. Naturally, violet would then be the shortest. Of course this goes for human visible wavelengths. Ultraviolet light is shorter in wavelength, but not human visible. Xrays have even shorter wavelengths, but they also are not human visible. Gamma rays are the shortest of all, but again not human visible.
What wavelengths of light can humans see?
Most humans eyes are sensitive to wavelengths between about 400 nm (violet) and 700 nm (red)
What has wavelength that are shorter than visible light?
We know that ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light.
What wave lengths is closest to the wave length of red light?
Visible light wavelengths fill the electromagnetic spectrum between red wavelengths and violet wavelengths.
Does ultraviolet have shoter wavelengths?
Compared to the visible light ultra violet has shorter wavelength
What wavelengths just a little higher than ultraviolet rays are called?
The next name of wavelengths longer than ultraviolet rays is "violet light".
What type of invisible energy with shorter wavelengths then violet?
This is the ultraviolet light.
What is an invisible form of energy with wavelengths that is a bit shorter than violet light?
Ultraviolet Radiation!
What type of light is scattered the most in your atmosphere?
Here on earth it is violet wavelengths that scatter the most, however the earth's sun emits more blue light than violet so blue wavelengths are scattered more frequently than violet wavelengths.

What is the visible light color of the shortest wavelengths?
violet
What measurement is used for the wavelengths of color?
Wavelengths of visible light are measured in nanometres. different colours are at different wavelengths. The range runs from violet at around 380nm to red at around 750nm.
What wavelengths of light can humans see?
Most humans eyes are sensitive to wavelengths between about 400 nm (violet) and 700 nm (red)
What type of radiation begins with the letter U?
The word is ultraviolet radiation. It is wavelengths that are shorter than those of visible violet light but longer than those of x-rays.
What visible light that has the shortest wavelengths color?
Violet has the shortest wavelength
Does violet have the shortest wavelengths?
Yes, out of all the colors of visible light, violet has the shortest wavelength.
