Which has the higher frequency infrared light or ultraviolet light?
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.
What is the frequency for ultraviolet waves?
Ultraviolet radiation has a wavelength between 10 and 400 nanometers. The shorter the wavelength, the more energy each photon contains. To find the frequency, divide the speed of light (299,792,458 metets per second) by the wavelength.
Which has higher frequency ultraviolet or 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.
What is the frequency of ultra-violet?
The wavelength of ultraviolet light is between 10 and 400 nanometers (nm).From the wavelength you can determine the frequency. If you divide the speed of light by the wavelength, you can calculate the frequency.The frequency range would be from 7.5 x 1014 Hz to 3 x 1016 Hz.
What determine the color of a light wave?
Its wavelength (or frequency).

What has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency than ultraviolet light?
uv rays
Who is wavelenght is longer visible light or ultraviolet light?
Visible light. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength.

Is it true ultraviolet light had longer wavelength than visible light?
No, UV light has more energy than visible light and therefore has a shorter wavelength
What color light has greater frequency than violet light?
Ultraviolet light has a shorter wavelength than visible light.
How are ultraviolet waves different from violet waves?
Ultraviolet (UV) light has a higher frequency (and a shorter wavelength and shorter period) than violet light. It is more energetic, too. We can't see UV light as our eyes only see up through violet. The shorter wavelengths of the UV light are something we cannot detect with our eyes. We can see (in order of increasing frequency) red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet light. The UV light is outside the range of our vision.
What is the difference between ultraviolet and infrared lights?
Wavelength, frequency, and energy carried by each photon (light quantum).

What determine the color of a light wave?
Its wavelength (or frequency).
How does Ultraviolet light work?
UV light is the same as any other kind of light or radiation along the spectrum from radioactive waves to radio waves. The difference between them is their wavelength and fequency. The longer the wavelength, the less the frequency. UV light is high-frequency short-wavelength light, just a bit more high-frequency than the highest-frequency visible light, which is violet. How does light work? Well, even physicists aren't quite sure.
