Are red light and infrared light the same?

No, red light and infrared light are not the same. Red light has a longer wavelength and is visible to the human eye, while infrared light has a shorter wavelength and is not visible to the human eye.


What has a longer wave length a infrared radiation or red light?

Infrared radiation has a lower frequency and longer wavelength than red light. Note that "infra" means "below" in this case referring to the lower frequency.


Is infrared electromagnetic?

Yes.It is the same as visible light but.has a longer wavelength than red light, hence "infrared"


What electromagnetic wave has a slightly longer wavelength tha red light?

Infrared.


Is the wave length of infrared light too short to be seen or too long?

The wavelength of infra-red light is LONGER than the wavelength of red light, and longer than anything to which the eye responds.


Why does infrared light appear red to the human eye?

Infrared light lies just beyond the visible spectrum of light, with longer wavelengths than red light. Because of this similarity in wavelength, our eyes perceive infrared light as red.


Is infrared energy electromagnetic?

Yes.It is the same as visible light but.has a longer wavelength than red light, hence "infrared"


Which color light has a longer wavelength?

The colour of visible light with the longest wavelength is red (approximately 700 nanometres).


Infrared rays have a shorter wavelength than ultraviolet rays?

This statement is incorrect. Infrared rays have a longer wavelength than ultraviolet rays. Infrared rays have wavelengths longer than visible light, while ultraviolet rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light.


Is the wavelength of infra-red light to short to be seen?

Yes, the wavelength of infrared light is too long to be seen by the human eye. Infrared light has longer wavelengths than visible light, ranging from about 700 nanometers to 1 millimeter, which is beyond the visible spectrum for humans.


Electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths just longer than light is?

Infra-red radiation has a wavelength adjacent to but longer than visible light.


A wavelength just outside the visible red wavelength is?

Infrared light has a wavelength just outside the visible red wavelength. This type of light is longer in wavelength than red light, making it invisible to the human eye but detectable by special cameras or sensors.
