ALL of the electromagnetic spectrum
except for that narrow band that we can perceive.
There are many names for various portions, mainly because they were discovered at different times by different people.
For example : radio, infra-red, ultra-violet, X-rays, heat, microwaves, etc.

What else can I help you with?
Which light has the greatest speed?
In a vacuum, all colors of light - as well as other electromagnetic radiation - travel at the same speed, the so-called "speed of light".
How are visible light radiowaves and other forms of electromagnetic radiation different from each other?
The only part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see is the small yet significant part of visible light. Visible light is not harmful for humans, but some of the other types of waves are.
What types of electromagnetic radiation have lower energy than microwaves?
the two types of electromagnetic radiations next to visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum are the two types of electromagnetic radiations next to visible light in the electromagnetic spectrumAnswer2: Infrared and Ultra Violet are next to visible light.
What is a fluorescent screen?
A fluorescent screen is a surface coated with a phosphor material that emits visible light when struck by electrons. It is commonly used in cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and other types of electronic displays to convert electrons into visible light, allowing images or text to be displayed.
Which region has the longer wavelength-visible light or infrared?
Infrared light has longer wavelengths than visible light. Visible light ranges from about 400-700 nanometers in wavelength, while infrared light ranges from about 700 nanometers to 1 millimeter. This difference in wavelength determines how these types of light interact with matter and are perceived by our eyes.
Which type of rays are visible?
Visible light rays are the only type of rays that are visible to the human eye. Other types of electromagnetic waves like infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays are not visible.
What are some different types of light besides visible?
Infrared and ultraviolet. X-rays, Gamma-rays, micro-waves, etc. etc.
What is white light and how is it different from other types of light?
White light is a combination of all the colors in the visible spectrum. It is different from other types of light because it contains all the colors, while other types of light may only contain specific colors or wavelengths.
What is the light called that the retina can detect?
The light that the retina can detect is called visible light, which falls within the electromagnetic spectrum and is made up of various colors with different wavelengths. The retina contains specialized cells called photoreceptors that are sensitive to this visible light and are responsible for converting light signals into electrical impulses for the brain to process.
What makes up white light and how does it differ from other types of light?
White light is made up of a combination of all the colors in the visible spectrum. This differs from other types of light, such as monochromatic light, which consists of only one specific color.
What can radiation do to the human body?
That depends what radiation - there are several types. For example, visible light, in the usual quantities, does no harm at all. A very intense light, or other types of radiation, can be very harmful indeed.That depends what radiation - there are several types.

What are two types of light called?
Two types of light are visible light, which can be seen by the human eye, and ultraviolet light, which is invisible to the human eye but has shorter wavelengths than visible light.
How many types of light are available in the market?
visible and non-visible. 2.
What are the three types of centered wavelengths of light?
The three types of centered wavelengths of light are ultraviolet, visible, and infrared. Ultraviolet light has shorter wavelengths than visible light, while infrared light has longer wavelengths. The visible spectrum, where light is visible to the human eye, falls between ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths.
What do mirror do to light waves?
there are three types of light waves i.e infrared light, visible light and ultra violet light. Out of these, only visible light rays (waves) gets reflected by the mirror but the other two light waves passes through the mirror.
How do we know there are types of electromagnetic radiation other than visible light?
Because experiments and technology have enabled us to prove the electromagnetic spectrum extends beyond the narrow band of visible light.
What types of electromagnetic radiation can you see?
Visible light.
