Ultraviolet light has a wavelength below 400 nanometers, infrared;s wavelength is less than 700 nanometers or so. Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength, so ultraviolet light has a much a much higher frequency than infrared.
Infrared and Ultraviolet light fall just outside human vision. The frequency of infrared light is less than the frequency of visible red light. There are different definitions and classifications of infrared, but the frequency ranges from 3 x 10 11 Hz (300 Gigahertz or 1000 micrometer wavelength) to about 4.3 x 10 14 Hz (0.7 micrometer wavelength). Ultraviolet's frequency is greater than the frequency of Violet light. This can range from 7.5 x 10 14 Hz (400 nanometer wavelength) to 3.0 x 10 16 Hz (10 nanometer wavelength). See related links.
Ultraviolet light has higher frequencies than infrared light. Ultraviolet light has shorter wavelengths and higher energy compared to infrared light which has longer wavelengths and lower energy.
The opposite of ultraviolet light is infrared light. Infrared light has longer wavelengths and lower frequencies compared to ultraviolet light, which has shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies.
The opposite of infrared light is ultraviolet light, which has shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies compared to infrared light.
Ultraviolet light has a higher frequency than microwaves. Ultraviolet light falls in the range of the electromagnetic spectrum with higher frequency and shorter wavelengths compared to microwaves which have lower frequency and longer wavelengths.
Ultraviolet is higher frequency, then visible light, then infrared.

The frequency of visible light falls between ultraviolet and infrared light on the electromagnetic spectrum. It has wavelengths ranging from approximately 400 to 700 nanometers.
No. Infrared (IR) light is longer wavelength (lower frequency) light and is of lower electromagnetic energy than shorter wavelength (higher frequency) ultraviolet (UV) light. Note that our skin "senses" infrared light (which we normally think of as heat) in a different way than it does ultraviolet light. This may account for the difference in the way it "feels" when we're exposed to light of the two energies. To be clear, ultraviolet light has higher energy photon for photon than infrared light. If both are absorbed by the skin, the reaction of the skin will be slightly different, but the energy imparted to the skin will be greater with the UV light that the IR light.

Ultraviolet is too high frequency to enter glass and infrared is too low.
No, infrared radiation (IR) does not have a higher frequency than visible light. Visible light is above IR on the electromagnetic spectrum. It (visible light) has higher frequency and shorter wavelengths than IR radiation does.
Infrared light has longer wavelengths compared to ultraviolet light. Infrared light ranges from about 700 nm to 1 mm, while ultraviolet light ranges from about 10 nm to 400 nm. Ultraviolet light has higher energy and shorter wavelengths than infrared light.
Yes it can cause cancer if in infrared light for long time.
