b. Infrared radiation is felt as heat.
C. Infrared radiation has less energy than visible light.
d. Infrared radiation can cause sunburn.

Answer 1

C. Infrared radiation has less energy than visible light.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an electromagnetic radiation, different radiations have different energy on the basis of photons present in them.

Infrared radiation has more energy than visible light because infrared photons carries more energy per photon than visible light.

Hence, the statement "C. Infrared radiation has less energy than visible light" is false.
