"Visible" light is the only kind of electromagneticenergy waves you can see. But it's not
the only kind of energy wave you can see.
You can certainly see ocean waves in the water, seismic waves in the land, standing waves
on a guitar string, and traveling waves running up and down a long guy-wire.

Why is heat energy harder to see then light energy?
Our eyes do not respond to heat waves, which is why we cannot see them. Light waves, on the other hand, are detected by our eyes and this makes us see.
What energy can we see?
We can see a tiny portion of electromagnetic waves called photons, or light.
Can you smell energy?
You cannot smell energy, but you can certainly feel energy. For example: If you were a ghost hunter and you feel a "presence" then, that would be feeling energy.
What are the waves called that have more energy than light you can see?
Sound because it has more waves than light.
What are two light energy waves that you can't see?
The two ligh energy waves that you can't see are ultra-violet (UV), and infra-red (IR). Ultra-violet light waves are measured at 380nm and below, infra-red light waves are 750nm and above. Normal light that you can see resides between these two regions.
What kind of energy do you need in order to see?
light waves
What kind of waves do humans see?
visible waves visible waves
Are x rays the only kind of radiant energy that you can see?
in a hospital
What kind of earthquake waves stretch and compress waves?
P-Waves. See the related links.

What is a light wave?
Visible light waves are the only electromagnetic waves we can see. We see these waves as the colors of the rainbow. Each color has a different wavelength. Red has the longest wavelength and violet has the shortest wavelength. When all the waves are seen together, they make white light.

Do x ray ave higher energy then radio waves?
yes, this is why x-ray waves can see through skin but radio waves can't.
