Infra red is (relative to light) lower frequency/longer wavelength but it travels just as fast - the speed of light: about 300 000 000 meters per second (three hundred million).

Where can infrared rays be found?
infrared rays can be found in sunflower
What is the maximum range of infrared rays?
The maximum range of infrared rays is 1000m.
Which travels faster in a vacuum - gamma rays or infrared rays?
In a vacuum, they both travel the exact same speed, the speed of light. IIRC that's about 3x108 meters per second.
Which travels faster in a vacuum gamma rays or infrared rays?
Neither. In vacuum, all electromagnetic radiation has the same speed, regardless of wavelength. It's the speed we call "the speed of light", but it applies to all of those other electromagnetic phenomena too.
What produces infrared rays?
Anything above the temperature of zero degrees produces infrared rays, that means that even humans do !!
How does the speed of infrared radiation compare with the speed of x rays when both speeds are measured in a vacuum?
They are the same.
Where can infrared rays be found?
infrared rays can be found in sunflower
What is the difference between infrared ray and gamma rays?
The main difference between gamma rays and infrared rays is in their wavelengths. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths while infrared rays have longer wavelengths. Gamma and infrared rays are types of electromagnetic radiation.
What is the maximum range of infrared rays?
The maximum range of infrared rays is 1000m.
Which travels faster in a vacuum - gamma rays or infrared rays?
In a vacuum, they both travel the exact same speed, the speed of light. IIRC that's about 3x108 meters per second.
What do people use everyday that have infrared rays in them?
Infrared rays are used in television remote controls
Are infrared rays radiation rays?
Yes, when you look at the Latin translation ,infrared means "below red."
Where rays can be found?
infrared rays can be found in sunflower
What is the origin of infrared?
Infrared Rays (IR) originate from the sun :)
Which travels faster in a vacuum gamma rays or infrared rays?
Neither. In vacuum, all electromagnetic radiation has the same speed, regardless of wavelength. It's the speed we call "the speed of light", but it applies to all of those other electromagnetic phenomena too.
Are infrared rays absorbed by the ozone layer which protects the earth?
Far infrared rays are, corresponding to lower temperatures, but not near infrared which corresponds to warmer temps.
How are X-ryas and infrared rays alike?
Infrared and x, or roentgen, rays are both part of the electromagnetic spectrum, of diffrent wave-lengths, infrared 'above' and x-rays 'below' what is part of the visible part.
