What photon has lower energy infared or visible light?

Infrared light has lower energy compared to visible light. This is because infrared light has longer wavelengths, which correspond to lower frequencies and energies.


What is infared radiation?

Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation with longer wavelengths than visible light. It is not visible to the human eye but is commonly associated with heat. Infrared radiation is used in various applications, such as thermal imaging and communication technologies.


What are three forms of radiation that come from the sun?

Three forms of radiation from the sun are visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light. These different forms of radiation have varying wavelengths and energy levels that interact with the Earth's atmosphere and surface in different ways.


Light 489 nm Where is this on the electromagnetic spectrum If it is visible light what color Another laser a diode laser emits light 987 nm Where is this on the electromagnetic spectrum?

Light with a wavelength of 489 nm falls within the blue region of the visible spectrum. It is part of the visible light spectrum. Light with a wavelength of 987 nm falls within the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.


In what portion of the electromagnetic spectrum does the sun emit most energy?

The sun's radiation comes as 45 percent visible light. 40 percent infared, and the remainder as Ultraviolet. This is why the Sun is damaging to our eyes as well as skin while giving us the light we need.

What are the kind of EM waves?

radio waves, microwaves, infared, visible light, UV light, x rays, gamma rays


What are the seven kinds of EM waves?

radio waves, microwaves, infared, visible light, UV light, x rays, gamma rays


What is infared light?

It's a wavelength of light which is outside the visual spectrum.


Are Infared waves have a larger wavelength than Ultraviolet light?

Yes, infrared waves have a larger wavelength than ultraviolet light. Infrared waves have wavelengths longer than those of visible light, while ultraviolet light has wavelengths shorter than visible light.


Why is the blue star hotter?

When a star is blue it means it is putting out light mostly in the ultraviolet spectrum which is of a higher energy than infared light, or light in the visible spectrum. This means the star has more energy and heat.


What has longer wavelength radio waves or visible light?

Neither is nesesarily longer a wave can go on forever. Visible light is more reflective than infared light so it will last longer. If you are talking about wavelength, infared lights wavelength is longer.
