Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has wavelengths shorter than violet light. UV light is not visible to the human eye but can be harmful if exposed to in large amounts. UV light is commonly associated with tanning beds, black lights, and the sun.

Ultraviolet.


What color of light has a shorter wave length explain your answer?

Violet light has shorter wavelength than any other color. I looked it up.


Does red or violet have the shortest wavelength?

Violet light has a shorter wavelength than red light. In the visible light spectrum, colors with shorter wavelengths, like violet, are located at the higher end of the spectrum, while colors with longer wavelengths, like red, are at the lower end.


Do light waves or gamma rays have shorter wave lengths?

I assume by light rays, you mean visible light rays. In this case, gamma rays have shorter wave lengths.

How long are X ray wave lengths compared with ultraviolet wave lengths?

X-rays are shorter waves than ultraviolet ones.


What is a relationship between frequency and wavelength?

The issue is not frequency and wavelength, a relationship is the problem AM Wave length is longer, than FM Wave length. Shorter wave lengths have a tendency to be shorter in the pm. AM Wave lengths were used before FM wave lengths.


Does waves with longer wave lengths have a higher frequency that waves with shorter wave lenghts?

No, waves with longer wavelengths have lower frequencies and waves with shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies. Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength in a wave.


What is the wave length that is shorter than a light wave?

Ultraviolet waves have shorter wavelengths than visible light waves.


Which light wave has the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency?

The light wave with the shortest wavelength and highest frequency is gamma rays. Gamma rays have wavelengths shorter than 10 picometers and frequencies greater than 10 exahertz.


What electromagnetic radiation has wave lengths shorter then visible light but longer than X-rays?

Ultra-violet light (wavelength approx 10-390 nanometers) lies between visible light (wavelength approx 390-750 nanometers) and X-rays (wavelength approx 0.1-10 nanometers).


What portions of the visible spectrum benefit photosynthesis the most?

Energy with shorter weve lengths, such as ultra violet, has higher energy levels than those with longer wave lengths, such as infrareds. So, I assume the portions of the visible spectrum with shorter wave lengths benefit photosynthesis the most.
