Which property spells the differences between infa-red and ultra-violet radiation?

The main difference between infrared and ultraviolet radiation lies in their wavelengths. Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths than visible light, making it thermal radiation that we feel as heat. Ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths than visible light and can cause sunburn and skin damage.


What do you call the ray that leaves the mirror?

A mirror and most surfaces reflect lots of things like light and heat. If you shine sunlight on a mirror it will reflect sunlight. Sunlight is the radiation which the sun gives off, within sunlight there are many different wave lengths with include infa-red and ultra-violet. In short a mirror with reflect certain wave-lengths, to understand better it is best you research on waves.


Which part of the electro magnetic spectrum allows us to see?

The visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum allows us to see. This portion of the spectrum ranges from about 400 to 700 nanometers in wavelength, with colors ranging from violet to red. Our eyes are sensitive to this range of wavelengths, allowing us to perceive light and colors in our environment.


Does infrared have more frequency than than ultraviolet?

no it doesn't because infa red is about the same watt level and ultraviolet does not radiate a whole lot of heat so they are even exept that ghost hunters like to use infa red

What are 2 major forms of energy released from stars?

Two major forms of energy released from stars are electromagnetic radiation, such as light and heat, and particle radiation, which includes high-energy charged particles like protons and electrons. These forms of energy are generated through processes like nuclear fusion in the core of stars.


What is the difference between microwave cooking and infa-red cooking?

A microwave uses radiation to cause friction in food, causing it to heat up or cook in a microwave. Infared cooking inserts heat at the core of a food and cooks it inside out.

What is the meaning of Infer-red transfer?

Infa-red file transfer is the use of infa-red light to transfer files to a reciever of infa-red light. (example: A wii remote uses infa-red light to send a signal, and a wii reciever receives the signal)
