What wavelengths are shorter than visible light?

Answer 1

Wavelengths shorter than visible light include ultraviolet (UV) light, X-rays, and gamma rays. UV light has wavelengths ranging from about 10 nm to 400 nm, while X-rays range from approximately 0.01 nm to 10 nm, and gamma rays are even shorter, typically less than 0.01 nm. These wavelengths are shorter than the visible spectrum, which ranges from about 400 nm (violet) to 700 nm (red).
