The frequency of infrared light ranges from about 300 gigahertz (GHz) to 400 terahertz (THz).
No, infrared radiation (IR) does not have a higher frequency than visible light. Visible light is above IR on the electromagnetic spectrum. It (visible light) has higher frequency and shorter wavelengths than IR radiation does.
Ultraviolet light has a wavelength below 400 nanometers, infrared;s wavelength is less than 700 nanometers or so. Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength, so ultraviolet light has a much a much higher frequency than infrared.
First off, frequency isn't a measure of speed, so infrared light is neither faster, nor slower than any other type of light. Second, infrared light is just that, LIGHT, so, its frequency is different than that of other lights, but it's not less than "light" because that wouldn't make any sense at all.With that cleared out of the way, yes, the frequency of infrared light is less than that of visible light.
Infrared and Ultraviolet light fall just outside human vision. The frequency of infrared light is less than the frequency of visible red light. There are different definitions and classifications of infrared, but the frequency ranges from 3 x 10 11 Hz (300 Gigahertz or 1000 micrometer wavelength) to about 4.3 x 10 14 Hz (0.7 micrometer wavelength). Ultraviolet's frequency is greater than the frequency of Violet light. This can range from 7.5 x 10 14 Hz (400 nanometer wavelength) to 3.0 x 10 16 Hz (10 nanometer wavelength). See related links.
The frequency of infrared light typically ranges from about 300 GHz to 400 THz.
Infrared has a lower frequency.
Frequency. Infrared light has a lower frequency; less than 400 Terahertz

wavelength and frequency. ultravoilet light has a short wave length and therefore a high frequency, while infrared light has a longer wave length and lower frequency
Infrared light.
Visible light has a higher frequency, a higher energy per photon, and a smaller wavelength, compared to infrared.

From the items on that list, infrared light has the lowest frequency, and X-rays have the highest.
No. X-Rays have a greater frequency than visible light. In order of increasing frequency(or decreasing wavelength). Radio waves, Microwaves, Infra-red radiation, Visible light, Ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, Gamma rays.
Ultraviolet is higher frequency, then visible light, then infrared.
