Infrared has a lower frequency.
The closest is infrared radiation.
Visible light has a lower frequency than infrared radiation. Visible light ranges in frequency from approximately 430 THz (red light) to 750 THz (violet light), while infrared radiation has frequencies below 430 THz.
No. X-Rays have a greater frequency than visible light. In order of increasing frequency(or decreasing wavelength). Radio waves, Microwaves, Infra-red radiation, Visible light, Ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, Gamma rays.
No. Infrared (IR) light is longer wavelength (lower frequency) light and is of lower electromagnetic energy than shorter wavelength (higher frequency) ultraviolet (UV) light. Note that our skin "senses" infrared light (which we normally think of as heat) in a different way than it does ultraviolet light. This may account for the difference in the way it "feels" when we're exposed to light of the two energies. To be clear, ultraviolet light has higher energy photon for photon than infrared light. If both are absorbed by the skin, the reaction of the skin will be slightly different, but the energy imparted to the skin will be greater with the UV light that the IR light.
No. Heat is infrared radiation ("infra" means "lower"). Lower frequency means longer wavelength. All radiation is captured by antennas that resonate at the frequency of the radiation. The "antennas" for visible light are electrons that use the radiation to jump into excited states and cause optical neurons to fire. The "antennas" of heat (infrared) are bigger -- they are molecules that jiggle faster when the radiation hits them. That jiggling is heat.
Infrared radiation has a lower frequency and longer wavelength than red light. Note that "infra" means "below" in this case referring to the lower frequency.

Visible light has a lower frequency than infrared radiation. Visible light ranges in frequency from approximately 430 THz (red light) to 750 THz (violet light), while infrared radiation has frequencies below 430 THz.
No, infrared radiation (IR) does not have a higher frequency than visible light. Visible light is above IR on the electromagnetic spectrum. It (visible light) has higher frequency and shorter wavelengths than IR radiation does.
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).
No. X-Rays have a greater frequency than visible light. In order of increasing frequency(or decreasing wavelength). Radio waves, Microwaves, Infra-red radiation, Visible light, Ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, Gamma rays.
Frequency. Infrared light has a lower frequency; less than 400 Terahertz

Infrared waves are located between microwaves and visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum. They have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies than visible light, making them invisible to the human eye but detectable as heat.
"UV" (ultra-violet) is radiation with shorter wavelength/higher frequency than visible. Infrared is radiation with longer wavelength/lower frequency than visible.
They emit infrared light waves. Which is a non-visible light.Commonly used to provide light for infrared security cameras when there in little to no light visible light Also used in bathroom heat lamps to transmit the heat waves to your skin I believe (not sure) infrared is lower frequency than visible light and ultraviolet is higher frequency than visible light
The key property that differentiates infrared and ultraviolet radiation is their frequency or wavelength. Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths and lower frequencies compared to ultraviolet radiation. This difference in frequency and wavelength determines the energy levels and interactions of each type of radiation with matter.
