The wavelength of UV radiation energy is typically shorter than the wavelength of normal sunlight radiation, so you can't see UV

What is the wavelenght of uv rays?

Less than that of visible light, which is in the range of about 350-700 nm - so UV rays would have a wavelength below 350 nm.


What does Wavelenght vs absorbance graph depicts in u-v spectroscopy?

A wavelength vs absorbance graph depicts in uv spectroscopy shows the different colored wavelenths of UV light and how they are absorbed and percieved, and which ones are visible and which ones are not.


How does UV radiation harm humans?

Since UV radiation has a shorter wavelenght than normal light it hits an object with the range 10 nm to 400 nm, and energies from 3eV to 124 eV. It causes cancer to skin cells under direct exposition of UV rad.


What is the frequency opf UV?

UV light has a frequency ranging from 7.5 x 10^14 Hz to 3 x 10^16 Hz, which corresponds to wavelengths between approximately 400 nm and 10 nm. UV light is divided into three categories: UVA (400-315 nm), UVB (315-280 nm), and UVC (280-100 nm), each with different biological effects.


Why DNA absorbs uv light at 260nm?

DNA absorbs UV light at 260nm due to the presence of nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine) that contain aromatic rings capable of absorbing UV light at this wavelength. This absorption allows for the quantification and analysis of DNA samples using UV-spectrophotometry.
