They close at c, the speed of light. From the frame of reference of the two flashlights, the beams leave at c, travel at c and arrive in the middle at t= d/v (time = distance over velocity--in this case v=c, so t=d/c). If you try to measure the close rate from the frame of reference of either wave front (which I suspect is what you are trying to do), the laws of Special Relativity apply. If you could ride on one front and measure the arriving front, you would measure it arriving at c, but greatly blue-shifted. Likewise if you select the other beam as your frame of reference. Confusion arises if we compare this to the closing rates of two cars traveling at high speed. The intuitive approach is to add the two speeds. But when you do that as an external observer, you are unconsciously projecting yourself into a different frame of reference. Here's why frame of reference must be so rigorously observed (and remember, you can only measure, not intuit): We take two cars moving at 60 mph on a collision course. If I stand at the starting point for car A (don't worry about acceleration times), and measure their speeds, I observe that A is moving away from my position at 60 mph and car B is approaching my position at 60 mph. The measurements are the same but reversed at the starting point for Car B. If I stand at the projected point of impact, I measure car A approaching at 60mph and car B approaching at 60 mph. The only vantage point from which I can measure a close rate of 120 mph is from inside or moving alongside one or the other of the two cars. That is the only frame of reference that permits that addition of speeds. The same applies to relativistic speeds, but at those speeds time dilation becomes a factor so cremains absolute and constant regardless of the observer's frame of reference. You can't stand aside watching the beams and intuit an additive speed.

John realizes he is facing his demise when he is outnumbered and outmatched in a dangerous situation, and he feels a sense of hopelessness and impending danger closing in on him. This realization often comes when he is backed into a corner or faced with overwhelming odds that make escape or survival seem unlikely.

Unfortunately there's no clear statement on when the film "Facing the Giants" has been actually made. But according to different sources the film has been released to cinemas in the United States in summer 2006, so the making of would be 2005 - or even earlier.

There are a few options to be considered when a country is facing an energy crisis. The first thing to be done is to analyze the excess or wasted use of energy and reduce it as much as possible. Importing energy sources may be required. Also, developing renewable energy solutions and informing citizens about energy conservation.
world is facing energy crisis. and we are depending on few of many available energy resources that are expensive and are not environment friendly. on the other side energy demand is increasing day by day. so we use alternative sources of energy especially environment friendly sources( solar, wind. etc)
