What is a fluorescent uranium salt?
A salt which become fluorescent when is irradiated with UV radiations from a UV lamp.
Does ultraviolet radiation have longer wavelengths then violet light?
Yes, it does. UV-C wavelength is 200-280 nanometers, UV-B is 280-320 nm, and UV-A is 320-400nm.
Is UV visible and IR range considered non ionizing radiation?
No of course not.answ2. Light and heat are ordinary EM (electromagnetic) radiation.Ionizing radiation is sufficiently energetic to remove parts of an atom, and to thus ionize it.The UV from sunshine may damage the molecular bonds, but this is not ionizing radiation.

Which are more energetic photons of UV-A radiation or photons of UV-B radiation?
UV-B.
How do UV and radiation relate?
UV is a type of radiation. It is fatal for life on earth.
Which of these is not a reason to avoid UV radiation?
