What is the difference between infrared radiation and ultraviolet radiation?
How does this affect their properties and uses?
Infrared radiation is often used for heating and communication technology, while ultraviolet radiation is used in sterilization and fluorescent lighting. The different wavelengths also affect how they interact with matter - infrared radiation is absorbed by materials that are good at conducting heat, while ultraviolet radiation can damage DNA in living cells.
