Ultraviolet waves have shorter wavelengths than Infrared waves. Since the relationship between wavelength and frequency is inversely proportional, UV waves have a much higher frequency than IR waves. IR waves have a frequency around 1012 Hertz, while UV waves' frequencies are around 1018 Hz. Thus, UV waves are more powerful than IR waves and can cause binds between molecules to break much more easily than IR waves.
Ultraviolet light extends for quite a ways up the electromagnetic spectrum after visible violet ends. Its frequencies are higher. Wavelengths from 400nm to 50nm covering 4 groups of UV.
The UV rays are of three types. they are UV-A, UV-B, UV-C.
The three types of UV rays, in order of increasing frequencies are:UVA rays (which account for 95% of the sunlight we come in contact with)UVB raysUVC rays (which are almost completely filtered out by the atmosphere).
UV rays are high wavelength waves. They are fatal for life on earth.
UV stands for "ultra violet" and consists of light frequencies higher in value than violet light.

microwaves are more penetrative than gamma rays, UV radiation and visible light, but less so than radio waves.
sun releases electromagnetic waves of many frequencies. e.g., x-rays, cosmic rays, gamma rays, uv, visible region, infrared radiations, micro waves and radio waves and even more........ if you have more improve this answer !
IR waves are longer than UV waves.
uv waves cannot penetrate plywood
No- UV is ultraviolet light. They transmit radio waves.

UV waves are shorter than infrared waves.
They're all examples of the same identical physical phenomenon ... electromagneticradiation ... only with different wavelengths (frequencies).
uv rays can give u sunburns but radio waves cant
A UV wave is an Ultraviolet wave from the sun. UV waves are the main cause of sunburn.
