Advantages of infrared rays include their ability to penetrate deeply into tissues for therapeutic purposes and their use in remote sensing and communication technologies. However, their disadvantages can include potential skin and eye damage if exposure is excessive, limited range compared to other forms of electromagnetic radiation, and interference with certain types of equipment.

How is heat tranferred by radiation?

First of all it is important to note that heat and infra-red rays are NOT the same thing. When an object gets really hot it starts to glow, emitting red light at first, (hence the phrase: 'red hot') because red is the least frequency. Hotter objects emit light of higher frequency. A light bulb and the Sun are both examples of this. But infra-red rays are even lower in frequency than red light. Infra-red rays are emitted in the same way by objects at room temperature. That means you, your computer and everything around you are 'glowing' with this infra-red radiation. Infra-red rays carry energy between objects at the speed of light. This process causes relatively hot objects to cool down faster.
