### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Infrared Radiation**: Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than visible light but shorter than microwaves. It is commonly associated with heat. 2. **Application 1: Night Vision Devices**: One of the primary applications of infrared radiation is in night vision technology. Night vision devices use infrared radiation to allow us to see in low-light conditions. These devices detect the infrared light emitted by objects and convert it into a visible image, enabling us to see in the dark. ...
