Is violet radiation visible to human?

No, violet radiation is not visible to the human eye. It falls outside of the visible spectrum of light for humans, which ranges from violet to red.


Is ultraviolet radiation visible or invisible?

By definition, ultra-violet light is outside the visible spectrum of EM radiation. Thus it is defined as invisible.


Is not part of the UV spectrum?

Infrared radiation is not part of the UV spectrum; it falls outside of the UV spectrum and has longer wavelengths than visible light. UV radiation, on the other hand, consists of shorter wavelengths than visible light and is classified as UVA, UVB, and UVC based on the wavelength range.


What is visible electromagnetic radiation?

The visible spectrum between red and violet.


Is all electromagnetic radiation in the optical portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is visable?

No, not all electromagnetic radiation in the optical portion of the spectrum is visible to the human eye. The visible portion of the spectrum ranges from about 400 nanometers (violet) to 700 nanometers (red), but there are wavelengths outside of this range that can also be classified as part of the optical spectrum, such as ultraviolet and infrared light.


How is the electromagnetic and visible spectrum related?

The visible spectrum is one band within the full range of electromagnetic radiation.


Why astronomers study radiation beyond the violet end of visible light and beyond the red end of visible light?

Astronomers study as much of the spectrum of radiation as they can, and the visible spectrum is only a small segment of it.


What kinds of visible radiation are included in the electromagnetic spectrum?

Visible radiation (light): 380-760 nm (or 790-400THz)


Why is radiation invisible to the human eye?

Radiation is invisible to the human eye because it has a wavelength that is outside the visible spectrum. This means that the energy emitted by radiation is not within the range that our eyes can detect, making it invisible to us.


A name scientists give to the full range of types of radiation?

The visible spectrum


What do the wavelengths of light that our eyes can see make up?

The visible spectrum of the electromagnetic spectrum of radiation


What is the form of radiation as natural visible light?

Visible light is a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
