Does light travel faster in diamond or water?
Light travels slower through denser media, so it travels faster through water than through a diamond.
Does light get faster when it moves?
In a vacuum, light travels at a constat speed. It won't get faster or slower over time. In other substances (e.g., in water) light moves at a speed determined by the characteristics of the substance. Here, it won't get slower or faster with time, either.
Does light travel faster through air water vacuum or glass?
it travels faster through air.
Does light travel fastest in space in air in water or through glass?
Light's apparent speed is fastest definitely in a vacuum and slower in water or glass. Light in air behaves more like in a vacuum than in water or glass.
Do Light waves travel more slowly through air and water?
It travels faster thru air
Does light travel more faster or slower as they enter water?
Slower in water.
Does light travel faster in diamond or water?
Light travels slower through denser media, so it travels faster through water than through a diamond.
Does light travel slower threw water?
Yes, light travels slower in water than in air.
Does light travel faster underwater than in air?

Light waves travel more as they enter water?
yes they travel faster :)
Why light travel faster in air than water?
Water is denser than air . Hence light travels faster in air than water.
Does sound or light travel faster through water?
Light travels much faster than sound, through wood.
Is the light travels SLOWER in air than water is the best explanation why the pencil appears broken at the boundary air and water?
Yoiu can explain that observation with the difference of the speed of light in air and in water. But in fact, the speed is FASTER in air and SLOWER in water.
Do substances dissolve faster or slower in hot water?
slower
Can light waves travel better in water or air?
Since air has a lower optical density than water, light waves can travel faster in air.
Does salt water freeze faster or slower than fresh water?
Salt water is slower.
