Velocity of light greatest?
in a vacuum
What material has the greatest velocity of light?
air
What color of light travels with greatest velocity?
All colors of light travel with the same speed.
In which of the following materials is the velocity of light greatest A Air B Water C Crown glass D Fused quartz?
The answer would be air. The other mediums have higher indices of refraction.
What is The greatest velocity a falling object?
the greatest velocity a falling object reaches is terminal velocity
What is the greatest velocity a falling object reaches?
the greatest velocity a falling object reaches is terminal velocity
What of a material indicates how much the speed of light in the materials changes as light passes through?
Refractive Index: the ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to that in the given medium
What material is the velocity of light the greatest?
Light travels at its "maximum velocity" in a vacuum. In any other medium, interference makes it appear to slow down. We're giving Čerenkov radiation the day off here.
What is the greatest velocity a falling objecy reaches?
The greatest velocity, achieved when the acceleration due to gravity is balanced by the aerodynamic deceleration, is called the terminal velocity.
What is the velocity of light in meters?
the velocity of light is 300000000 m/s
What happens when light passes through something?
The velocity of light is greatest when travelling through a vacuum. When travelling through something else, a glass material say, then its velocity is slower. The refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in that substance. For example light travels in a vacuum about 1.3 times as fast as in water, so we say water has a refractive index of 1.3. And it is likely that the velocity in the glass will be different at different wavelengths of light.
What is the earth's greatest velocity?
perihelion
