What else can I help you with?
Is it posible for a fluorescent material to emit radiation the ultraviolet region after observing visible light explain?
not possible, as visible light photons have less energy and ultraviolet photons need more energy. Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. So by conservation principle ultraviolet photon as they fall on fluorescent material could give out less energetic light photons, but the converse is not possible.
Why is there no substance that convert visible light to UV?
There is no substance that can directly convert visible light to UV because the energy required to promote electrons from the visible light energy levels to the UV energy levels is too high within a single step. The energy levels of the electrons in UV are simply too far apart from those in visible light for a direct conversion to occur.
Is the frequency of infrared light higher than visible light?
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.
Visible light and other waves of energy are forms of?
Visible light and other waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves unlike sound waves can travel through vacuums and do so at c (3x10^8 m/s). The spectrum is very broad and includes microwaves, ultraviolet , x-rays, and our own visible light spectrum. These waves are differentiated based on their frequency but all contain photons, mass-less charge-less particles, hence the dual nature of light (light and other waves behave both as particles and waves, confusing i know :P) basically what this means is that the only difference between visible light, x-rays, and microwaves is the frequency of the photon wave.
Why is infra-red radiation rather than visible light used with optic fibers?
Infrared radiation is used with optical fibers because it is less prone to attenuation (loss of signal strength) in the fiber compared to visible light. Additionally, infrared radiation is less affected by external factors like ambient light, making it more reliable for long-distance transmission through the fiber.

Why we get easily sunburned in ultraviolet rays but not in visible light?
Ultraviolet (UV) rays have higher energy levels than visible light, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin and cause damage to cells. Visible light has lower energy levels and does not penetrate as deeply, resulting in less harm to the skin. UV rays can also damage the DNA in skin cells, triggering a sunburn response.
Compare and contrast ultraviolet light waves and visable light?
Wavelength of violet is the shortest and that for red is the longest in the visible region. So for ultra violet the wavelength is to be less still and that for infra red it has to be larger than red So wavelength increases as we move through UV, visible and IR.
Do ultraviolet wavelengths have higher energy levels?
More energy per photon than visible light, if that's what you mean.
What kind of energy does a fluorescent light produce?
Main one is light energy. Also some heat is produced
What is the wavelength or ultraviolet?
Less than that of visible light. The Wikipedia lists a wavelength between about 100 and 310 nm.
Does ultraviolet light carry more energy than infrared radiation?
Yes. Radiations on the "red" end of the spectrum, such as radio, microwave, and infrared, have markedly less energy than visible light. Frequencies on the "purple" end, on the other hand, such as ultraviolet, x-ray, and gamma, have considerably more.
Does infrared high or low energy?
Infrared radiation has less energy (per photon) than visible light.
Does ultraviolet radiation have longer wavelengths then violet light?
No, ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths than violet light. Violet light is at the end of the visible light spectrum with longer wavelengths compared to ultraviolet radiation, which falls just beyond the violet end of the spectrum.
What is waves that are very long and do not have much light energy?
Ultraviolet light, x-rays, and gamma rays are all electromagnetic waves that are more energetic than visible light.
Why is there no substance that convert visible light to UV?
There is no substance that can directly convert visible light to UV because the energy required to promote electrons from the visible light energy levels to the UV energy levels is too high within a single step. The energy levels of the electrons in UV are simply too far apart from those in visible light for a direct conversion to occur.
Would ultraviolet light passing through a prism be bent more or less than visible light?
Ultraviolet (UV) light would be bent more than visible light when passing through a prism. This is because UV light has a shorter wavelength than visible light, and shorter wavelengths are refracted more strongly as they pass through different mediums. The degree of bending, or refraction, is determined by the refractive index of the material, which varies with the wavelength of light. As a result, UV light experiences greater bending compared to visible light.
