One difference between visible and non-visible light is that visible light can be seen by the human eye, while non-visible light, such as ultraviolet or infrared light, cannot be seen without special equipment.
Visible light refers to the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye, with wavelengths ranging from about 400 to 700 nanometers. Nonvisible light encompasses the rest of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as ultraviolet, infrared, X-rays, and gamma rays, which have wavelengths either shorter (higher energy) or longer (lower energy) than visible light.
A black light emits ultraviolet (UV) light, which is not visible to the human eye but can cause certain materials to fluoresce. A regular light bulb emits visible light that illuminates the surrounding area.
Visible light is visible (for the human eye), infrared is not. Infrared has a longer wavelength, and a higher frequency. visible light is visible to human i.e the VIBGYOR, above vibgyor are ultravoilet light which is not visible to human eye and below vibgyor are infrared light which is also not visible to human eye.
Infrared light has longer wavelengths and is not visible to the human eye, while visible light has shorter wavelengths and is what we can see. Infrared light is often used for heat detection and communication, while visible light is what we perceive as colors.
The term "electromagnetic" is the wrong term. The correct term is "photoelectric". Aslo the phrase between the infrared and ultraviolet should be stated: between the thresholds of infrared and ultra-violet light. So the correct question would be: What is the region of the photoelectric spectrum that lies between the thresholds of infrared and ultra-violet light? Answer: The visible light spectrum

I wasn't aware that non-visible light made a sound...
The difference is their wavelengths.
Longer than some non-visible ... like ultraviolet and X-rays ... and shorter than other non-visible ... like radio and infrared.
their wavelengths (frequencies)
Yes, UV, and Infrared.
Their wavelength.
Gamma rays are of higher energy and much much shorter wavelength than visible light.
The only difference, between ultra violate light and visible light, is their frequencies, UV has higher frequency than visible and since wavelength x frequency = the speed of light (which is constant at 3x108 ms-1), therefore wavelength is higher in UV. UV light is also not visible, unlike visible light! so, in summery the difference is frequency and wave length.
Ultraviolet light has a greater energy per photon.
Light rays are visible and have higher frequency compared to that of heat radiation Heat radiation is nothing but infra red which is not visible to human eyes. They have longer wavelength compared to that of visible light
