Ultraviolet Rays are longer in wavelength than x-rays are, but shorter in wavelength than visible light. An example of an ultraviolet ray, is a tanning bed. Ultraviolet rays can ionize and damage skin tissue by the shortest wavelength, causing skin cancer. Ultraviolet rays are 100 nm on the electromagnetic spectrum.
