no. they slow down.
The light refracts due to the change in speed. The change in speed occurs because the light is travelling through a denser medium. So it will travel fastest through the air and slowest through the glass
All electromagnetic waves travel through space at the "speed of light". Light is one form of electromagnetic waves.
They all travel through a vacuum at the same speed - The speed of light.
Further in a given period of time? No. The speed of light is constant in all mediums. The speed of sound, however, which is a physical wave, does change.
It is simply called a change in speed.

The speed of light is determined by the electric and magnetic properties of the stuff it's traveling through. The "light" itself is just electrostatic and magnetic fields traveling together through the stuff. Change the electrical properties of the medium, and you change the speed of light through it.

the true answer is light speed
Electrons are able to travel close to speed of light.
Light does not change speed when it goes through glass.
They all travel through a vacuum at the same speed - The speed of light.

No, light is at its fastest in a vacuum.
No.
X-rays are a kind of electromagnetic radiation - similar to light. They travel at the speed of light through a vacuum - about 300 million meters/second.X-rays are a kind of electromagnetic radiation - similar to light.

When light travels through anything that is not a vacuum, it will usually slow down.
