The infrared (IR) radiation has a longer wavelength (and a lower frequency) than ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The former is below the visible spectrum, and the latter is above that visible (sometimes called optical) spectrum.
However, IR radiation does not have the longest wavelength in the Electromagnetic Spectrum. That would be the Radio Waves.
Additionally,:
The prefix Infra- suggests "standing under, sub-, inferior to" (IR: Standing under Red light waves)
The prefix Ultra- suggests "standing beyond" Violet light waves
UV light has a shorter wavelength than infrared.
The wavelength of ultraviolet waves is shorter than the wavelength of infrared waves. Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths ranging from 10 nm to 400 nm, while infrared waves have wavelengths ranging from 700 nm to 1 mm.
Infrared is a much longer wavelength than ultraviolet.
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.
Ultraviolet rays have shorter wavelengths than infrared rays. Ultraviolet rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light, making them invisible to the human eye, while infrared rays have longer wavelengths.
UV light has a shorter wavelength than infrared.
This statement is incorrect. Infrared rays have a longer wavelength than ultraviolet rays. Infrared rays have wavelengths longer than visible light, while ultraviolet rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light.
The wavelength of ultraviolet waves is shorter than the wavelength of infrared waves. Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths ranging from 10 nm to 400 nm, while infrared waves have wavelengths ranging from 700 nm to 1 mm.
Ultraviolet with its higher frequency and shorter wavelength carries more energy then infrared.
Infrared is a much longer wavelength than ultraviolet.
Longer than visiblie wavelength is Infrared. Shorther than visible wavelength is ultraviolet. Asking for answers here to the Guardian crossword is cheating. ;o)
No, ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths compared to visible light and infrared radiation. The electromagnetic spectrum orders radiation from longest to shortest wavelength as radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays.
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.
Ultraviolet radiation lies on the shorter-wavelength side of visible light, while infrared radiation lies on the longer-wavelength side. Ultraviolet has higher energy and shorter wavelengths than visible light, while infrared has lower energy and longer wavelengths.
Ultraviolet rays have shorter wavelengths than infrared rays. Ultraviolet rays have wavelengths shorter than visible light, making them invisible to the human eye, while infrared rays have longer wavelengths.
Humans cannot see ultraviolet light or infrared light. Ultraviolet light has a shorter wavelength than visible light, while infrared light has a longer wavelength. Both types of light are invisible to the human eye but can be detected with special instruments.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is stronger than infrared radiation. UV radiation has a shorter wavelength and higher energy than infrared radiation, making it more harmful to living organisms. Infrared radiation is felt as heat and is generally less damaging to biological tissues.
