Visible light is visible (for the human eye), infrared is not. Infrared has a longer wavelength, and a higher frequency.
visible light is visible to human i.e the VIBGYOR, above vibgyor are ultravoilet light which is not visible to human eye and below vibgyor are infrared light which is also not visible to human eye.

What electromagnetic wave is located between infrared radiation and ultraviolet radiation in the visible spectrum?
The term "electromagnetic" is the wrong term. The correct term is "photoelectric". Aslo the phrase between the infrared and ultraviolet should be stated: between the thresholds of infrared and ultra-violet light. So the correct question would be: What is the region of the photoelectric spectrum that lies between the thresholds of infrared and ultra-violet light? Answer: The visible light spectrum
Difference between infrared waves and red light waves?
Infrared waves have longer wavelengths compared to red light waves. The wavelengths of infrared waves are too long for the naked eye to see, while red light waves can be seen as part of visible light.
Which band of the electromagnetic spectrum has a wavelength in between infrared and uv?
Visible light.
How is infrared radiation different from visible radiation?
Both are examples of electromagnetic radiation. Infrared has a longer wavelength (lower frequency) than visible light. Of course visible light is visible to humans and infrared is not (although long wave Infrared is sensible to humans as heat).
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.
What is the difference between infrared light and visible light ultraviolet light?
The difference is their wavelengths.
What is the basic difference between ultravilolet visible light and infrared radiation?
Their wavelength.

What are infrared lights?
== == Infrared light lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared light has a range of wavelengths, just like visible light has wavelengths that range from red light to violet. "Near infrared" light is closest in wavelength to visible light and "far infrared" is closer to the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The longer, far infrared wavelengths are about the size of a pin head and the shorter, near infrared ones are the size of cells, or are microscopic.
What portion of the engergy spectrum is visible light?
Visible light is in the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum between infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) light.
What wave has wave lenghts between infrared and ultraviolet waves?
Visible light.
The frequency of visible light falls between that of?
Ultraviolet and the infrared.
Which band of the electromagnetic spectrum has a wavelength in between infrared and uv?
Visible light.

Transfer of energy from the sun to earth's surface?
That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.
