Yes. Light particles travel at the speed of light, hf = mc^2; m=hf/c^2 = h/cw = 7.40E-51f.

Which particle travels the fastest?

There are some particles that travel at the speed of light - mainly, the photon (the particle that makes up light), and the (hypothetical) graviton. No particles are known to travel faster than that, and it doesn't seem likely that this is at all possible.


Is there any possible way to travel at the speed of light to get from place to place in space?

by converting one into light particles.


Can traveling at the speed of light melt iron?

It isn't clear at all what you mean. In any case, it isn't possible to travel at the speed of light - except for specific particles, such as photons (pieces of light), which can ONLY travel at the speed of light.


What travels at light speed besides engines?

Particles that have no mass, such as photons, travel at the speed of light in a vacuum. These particles exhibit wave-particle duality and can behave both as waves and particles. Light, as a form of electromagnetic radiation, also travels at the speed of light.


What is the universe's most fastest thing known to man?

The Universe seems to have a speed limit, called the "speed of light". This speed limit is approximately 300,000 kilometers/second. Light travels at that speed; so do other electromagnetic waves. Gravity waves are believed to travel at the speed of light as well. Finally, it is possible for particles to travel at a speed very close to the speed of light. Neutrinos tend to travel very close to the speed of light; also, cosmic rays contain very high-energy particles which also travel very close to the speed of light.


Why light don't travel at an infinite speed?

Because at infinite speed, it's mass will become zero, which is not possible as it consists of photons which are not massless particles.


Is there any way to travel by light speed?

With current technology, it is not possible to even come anywhere close to the speed of light. For example, traveling at 1/10 the speed of light is still science fiction. On the other hand, for anything that does NOT travel at the speed of light, it is impossible to actually attain the speed of light. In theory you might get close. There are some particles, such as photons and the hypothetical gravitons, which ONLY travel at the speed of light.


Is it possible to travel at the speed of light in water?

No, it is not possible to travel at the speed of light in water. Light travels at a slower speed in water compared to its speed in a vacuum, which is about 299,792 kilometers per second. The speed of light in water is approximately 225,000 kilometers per second.


How To Travel At The Speed Of Light?

You can't travel at the speed of light. It might be possible, in theory, to approach it, but not quite to reach it.


How do you think it would be possible to travel at the speed of light?

The only way to travel at the speed of light is to not have any mass.


Has it been proven impossible to travel at a velocity equal to the speed of light?

Faster than light travel is possible, but only for small particles like tachyons. Travel for humans is virtually impossible unless a way is developed to convert humans to particles. It has been proven improbable, but technology may prove it possible in the far future.


Is it possible for any type of particles to have velocity greater than the velocity of light. Justify your answer?

Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Yes, it is possible for particles to travel through a medium (not a vacuum!) faster than light can travel through that medium (not a vacuum!), which gives rise to Cherenkov radiation. Tachyons - a type of superluminal particle that is theorized but has never been observed - should be able to travel faster than light, but they would not be able to travel at or below light speed.
