Do photons have weight?
No, photons do not have weight. Photons are particles, made pure out of energy, which travel at the speed of sound.
Why do the particles travel fasted in a hot object?
Heat=energy. The higher the heat, the higher the energy. Particles travel faster because they have more energy.
How does energy transfer without a medium in a wave?
The only way energy can travel without a medium is by electromagnetic waves, or in other words, photons.
Photons travel outward from a light source in?
the photons travel outward from a light source in all directions.
Photons travel outward from a light bulb in?
Photons travel outward from a light bulb in all directions
Do photons have weight?

Do ultraviolet photons travel at with a greather speed than yellow photons?
No. All photons travel at the speed of light.
All light has the same amount of energy?
This is a tricky question because there is more than one form of energy in light. There is the energy that each particle of light (the photon) has and there is group energy which is the sum total of all the photon energy as they travel as a group (like in a laser beam). But the good news is that the answer is FALSE for both the photon and group energies. Photon energy depends on the photon fundamental frequency. And the higher the energy the bluer the color, which can run from red to violet. Those photons in the violet color have higher energy than photons in the red color frequency. And group energy is just the sum of all the photon energies in a group, like a light beam from your flashlight (aka, torch). So for a given mix of photons, the more photons in the group the higher is the group energy level. What we call light intensity (e.g., bright or dim) depends on the group energy with high energy equating to high intensity.
What type of energy is useful in light?
Light is energy. Light is made of massless particles called photons that travel at the speed of light. Photons at a given frequency carry energy equal to the Planck constant times the photon's frequency.

Why any object cannot travell with the speed of light?
Some particles, like photons and gravitons, are believed to ALWAYS travel at the speed of light. Particles, or larger amounts of matter, that move at a slower speed can't be made to travel at the speed of light - according to the Special Theory of Relativity, that would require an infinite energy.
How does thermal energy travel through space from Sun to Venus?
Due to the vacuum of space there is no convection or conduction. Energy is transported by photons from the Sun to Venus (radiation).
