Ultraviolet (UV) rays absorption can lead to skin damage, such as sunburn, premature aging, and an increased risk of skin cancer. UV exposure can also harm the eyes and suppress the immune system. It is important to protect the skin and eyes from UV rays by using sunscreen, wearing protective clothing, and avoiding excessive sun exposure.

How do ultraviolet rays react differently than infrared waves when passing through glass?

Ultraviolet rays are absorbed by glass, while infrared waves can pass through it with minimal absorption. Ultraviolet rays have higher energy and interact more strongly with the glass molecules, causing them to be absorbed and blocked effectively. In contrast, infrared waves have lower energy and are able to penetrate glass with little obstruction.
