Lesson Summary. Infrared waves are just part of the electromagnetic spectrum; to be exact, they're waves that have a wavelength between 700 nm (nanometers) and 1 mm. This can't quite be detected by human eyes-it is just beyond the red side of the rainbow.esson Summary.

Also called split rail or post and rail, a ranch-style vinyl fence with two to four rails typically costs do-it-yourselfers $4-$12 a linear foot for materials; with a gate and other options do-it-yourself materials can total $500-$1,400 for 100' of fencing and $3,500-$10,000 to enclose a simple square acre (about 830').
The reason why more homeowners don't use vinyl is its cost. The materials are $10 to $25 per linear foot, and labor adds another $5 to $8. So, you could pay as much as $33 per linear foot as the cost of having an attractive fence. Vinyl also occasionally becomes brittle during inclement weather.
