This is what I found for question #3:

III. Beyond the violet end of the visible spectrum is light of shorter wavelengths and higher energies. Our eyes cannot detect this light either. This area of the electromagnetic spectrum includes ultraviolet light, x-rays, and gamma rays.
Ultraviolet light extends from the violet region of the visible spectrum, down to about 10 nm. Following Herschel's discovery of infrared light, Johann Ritter discovered ultraviolet radiation in 1801. By observing the effects of radiation from the sun on silver chloride, Ritter determined that radiation existed beyond the visible violet.
