How are infrared waves and infrared radiation related?
infrared waves and infrared radiation both are same
Which property spells the difference between infrared and ultraviolet radiation?
Ultraviolet radiation means:ultraviolet: radiation lying in the ultraviolet range; wave lengths shorter than light but longer than X rays. Infrared radiation means: electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than visible light but shorter than radio waves.
What type of wave doesn't require a medium to travel?
Transverse waves. Eg. Electromagnetic radiation like infrared, Ultraviolet waves etc.
What type of electromagnetic wave has highest energy a ultraviolet wave or an infrared wave?
Infrared radiation has a lower frequency than optical light as it is below the red end of the spectrum. "Infra" means below, making "infrared" meaning "below red. On the other hand, ultraviolet radiation has a higher frequency than optical light as it is above the violet end of the spectrum. "Ultra" means "above or greater", making ultraviolet meaning "above violet". The answer to your question would be: ultraviolet radiation has more electromagnetic energy than infrared radiation.
What has the shorter wavelength ultraviolet or infrared?
The infrared (IR) radiation has a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The former is below the visible spectrum, and the latter is above that visible (sometimes called optical) spectrum. However, IR radiation does not have the longest wavelength in the Electromagnetic Spectrum. That would be the Radio Waves. Additionally,: The prefix Infra- suggests "standing under, sub-, inferior to" (IR: Standing under Red light waves) The prefix Ultra- suggests "standing beyond" Violet light waves
Do ultraviolet waves produce thermal energy?
They technically are not "hot" per se....they are forms of radiation.
How are infrared waves and infrared radiation related?
infrared waves and infrared radiation both are same
Higher frequencies ultraviolet waves or infrared waves?
Ultraviolet is higher frequency, then visible light, then infrared.
What form of energy travels in varying wavelengths such as visible light infrared waves radio waves ultraviolet waves and X rays?
The electromagnetic spectrum includes visible light radio waves and infrared ultraviolet and x-rays.

What are the radiations given out by the sun?
The radiation given off by the sun is electromagnetic waves. The waves are made up of two types of rays ultraviolet and infrared.
Radio waves X rays light rays ultraviolet rays and infrared rays all have one name What is it?
Radiation.
Is electromagnetic radiation infrared radiation?
No, not in general. It is rather the other way around. Infrared radiation is electromagnetic radiation, and electromagnetic radiation spans multiple types of radiation, from microwaves, light, infrared, ultraviolet, radio, and more. So electromagnetic radiation could be infrared, but that is just one type of electromagnetic radiation
Which has the greatest frequency out of radio wave microwave infrared wave visible light ultraviolet light x ray gamma ray?
X-rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic spectrum.
