Hi there,

That is a question which is deeper than it may first appear. Mmm. I would go with dark being the absence of light, since light is actually something (electromagnetic waves).

ANSWER: Light as we see it has all the spectrum colors that we can detect or frequency in essence. dark or black is the lack of these frequency or below our detection by our eyes

The question doesn't make sense. Darkness is a lack of light (electromagnetic radiation in the visible spectrum) so by definition, if light didn't exists, everything would be dark.

What is the absence of color?

Jet black.Black.ADDED BY JACOBM1198:Actually, white is the absence of color. Many people think that black is the absence of color because they think it is the absence of light, but it isn't true. Black absorbs all light and all color, which is why it is dark and less reflective than white, which reflects all light and color. Therefore, white is the absence of color. People, please don't answer questions you don't know.By the way, "jet black" is generally described as a shiny black color, so even if black WAS the absence of color, that would be wrong.

Does darkness have speed?

Neither can "come first" - for darkness to exist there must be an absence of light. But for light to exist there must be something to burn, and before there was anything burning there would have been darkness. But.... as there would have been nothing to observe the darkness - as nothing can exist without light - then one can say that light and darkness are mutually necessary. You can't have one without the other.
