Gamma radiation is of lower energy than visible radiation?

No. Gamma radiation is of higher energy than visible (light) radiation.


Does Infra red or yellow light have a higher frequency?

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.


Is ultraviolet radiation a higher or lower energy radiation than visible light?

Ultraviolet radiation is of higher energy than visible light. Ultra-violet suggests that it is above violet in the spectrum, and the colour violet is the uppermost region of visible light.


What is the name of the radiation between visible light and x rays?

The radiation between visible light and x-rays is called ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UV radiation has shorter wavelengths and higher energy levels than visible light, but lower energy levels than x-rays.


What is the difference between light rays and heat radation?

Light rays are visible and have higher frequency compared to that of heat radiation Heat radiation is nothing but infra red which is not visible to human eyes. They have longer wavelength compared to that of visible light


Does uv radiation have a greater frequency than violet light?

No, violet light has a higher frequency than UV radiation. UV radiation falls in the electromagnetic spectrum with shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than the visible light spectrum.


Does UV radiation or violet light have lower energy?

UV radiation has higher energy compared to violet light. UV radiation falls in the range of the electromagnetic spectrum with shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than visible light, including violet light.


Which form of electromagnetic radiation is visible?

Visible light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that is visible.


Are uv and infra red light visible?

"UV" (ultra-violet) is radiation with shorter wavelength/higher frequency than visible. Infrared is radiation with longer wavelength/lower frequency than visible.


What are electromagnetic radiation that has a wavelength between that of visible light and that of X-rays?

Electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between visible light and X-rays is called ultraviolet radiation. It is known to have shorter wavelengths and higher energy than visible light, and is commonly associated with effects like sunburn and skin damage from excessive exposure.


Electromagnetic radiation and what is called ultraviolet light?

Electromagnetic radiation is a type of energy that travels through space in the form of waves. Ultraviolet light is a specific type of electromagnetic radiation that has shorter wavelengths and higher energy than visible light. Exposure to ultraviolet light can have both beneficial (such as vitamin D synthesis) and harmful effects (such as skin damage).


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).
