This is not a good question - x-ray IS radiation. It's just a specific type of radiation and longitude. But its very short - 10^-10 m (1 A). For example - the visible light spectrum is (more or less) from 400 to 800 nm (10^-9 m). That's why you cannot see x-rays.

In the electromagnetic spectrum what is the radiation on either side of visible light?
ultraviolet radiation and infrared radiation
What is infared radiation?
A type of energy with wavelengths longer than visible light.
Are the Earth's radiation wave larger than the suns?
Yes, they are longer. Longer wavelengths are lower energy.
What is a microwave radiation?
Radio with mm to cm range wavelengths. It is longer wavelength than IR.
Does the sun appears reddish as it sets because the sun emits more radiation at longer wavelengths at sunset?
no
What has a wavelength longer then the wavelengths of visible ight?
Infrared radiation.
In the electromagnetic spectrum what is the radiation on either side of visible light?
ultraviolet radiation and infrared radiation
Which form of radiation has the longest wavelength between infrared and visible?
Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths.
What is infared radiation?
A type of energy with wavelengths longer than visible light.
What types of electromagnetic radiation has longer wavelengths than visible light?
infrared
Are the Earth's radiation wave larger than the suns?
Yes, they are longer. Longer wavelengths are lower energy.
How long are the wavelengths of radiation emitted by Earth are?
Longer than those emitted by the Sun
What is a microwave radiation?
Radio with mm to cm range wavelengths. It is longer wavelength than IR.
What electromagnetic wave has a wavelength greater than that of light?
Radio, microwaves, radar, and infrared radiation have.
Why are short wavelengths of EM radiation less common then medium wavelengths?
Shorter wavelengths, like gamma rays and X-rays, require more energy to produce than longer wavelengths like visual light.
Does the sun appears reddish as it sets because the sun emits more radiation at longer wavelengths at sunset?
no
How would you describe the wavelengths of incoming solar radiation compared to the wavelengths of reradiated heat?
The wavelengths of incoming solar radiation are shorter than the wavelengths of reradiated heat.
