Visible light has a wavelength of 400nm-700nm (from violet to red). Ultraviolet rays which starts immediately after the violet region of visible light have their wavelength from 10nm-400nm.(where nm means nano-meter)

The wavelength range for ultraviolet rays is 310 nanometers to 100 nanometers. It is located on the electromagnetic spectrum between visible light rays and x-rays.

Approximately 10 to the power of minus 7 Metre, which is 1/10,000,000th of a Metre

What has more heat uv or iv?

UV (ultraviolet) radiation, with wavelengths shorter than visible light, is not heat. IV (intravenous) medication is usually administered at room temperature. IR (infrared) radiation, with wavelengths longer than visible light, is heat.


What are examles of radiation and uv light?

Some examples of radiation and UV light include sunlight and ultraviolet light bulbs. Each produce special wavelengths of light which are not seen by the naked eye.


Why do you use quartz cuvette rather than using glass cuvettes?

Glass will absorb radiation below 320nm whereas quartz will allow transmission of the UV wavelengths. So use glass cuvettes for wavelengths in the visible range from 380nm to 780nm and quartz cuvettes for wavelengths below 380nm.

Radio waves, mostly.


What type of solar radiation does the ozone layer absorb?

UV-C and UV-B, as most of the more energetic wavelengths are gone before the ozone layer. credit goes to ANSWERS


Is UV visible and IR range considered non ionizing radiation?

No of course not.answ2. Light and heat are ordinary EM (electromagnetic) radiation.Ionizing radiation is sufficiently energetic to remove parts of an atom, and to thus ionize it.The UV from sunshine may damage the molecular bonds, but this is not ionizing radiation.

What would happen if there is no ozone gas in the atmosphere?

The layer of ozone (O3) in the atmosphere absorbs UV-C solar radiation with wavelengths above around 200 nm as well as most UV-B radiation. UV-C radiation is very harmful to living things, so without the ozone layer we would have to keep ourselves, our families, our pets and our plants shielded from sunlight.

What is the UV protection offered by blue color contact lenses?

UV protection can be offered by blue and other colour contact lenses. It is now possible to select contact lenses from a range of colours that will offer UV protection. They can help by blocking an average of 88% of UV-A radiation and 99% of UV-B radiation.
