When is the speed of light the fastest?
When the light is traveling through vacuum.
What is the same for all photon traveling through a vacuum?
Speed. All photons traveling through a vacuum travel at the speed of light.
Which light has the ACCURATE speed?
ANY light traveling through the same medium (stuff) has the same speed.
What will happen when an object will try to travel at more than the speed of light?
Nobody knows for sure. We have never witnessed a physical object traveling faster than the speed of light.
What is the time required for an object when it is traveling at the speed of light?
Time required to do what? To move from one place to another, divide the distance by the speed of light.
What is the property of light that allows it to travel at that speed?
The speed of light is determined by the electric and magnetic properties of the stuff it's traveling through. The "light" itself is just electrostatic and magnetic fields traveling together through the stuff. Change the electrical properties of the medium, and you change the speed of light through it.
What is the speed of light at 30 degrees?
That would depend on the medium which the light is traveling through.
Types of electromagnetic waves traveling through a vacuum travel at the speed of light The speed of light?
is a constant, about 300,000,000 m/s.
Traveling without changing speed?
When you (or an object) travel without changing speed, then you have constant velocity (speed). This means there is no change in speed (acceleration) when you (or an object) is traveling.
Why is the speed of the light?
The speed of light is the result of the electrostatic and magnetic properties of the medium through which it's traveling. The speed changes only when those properties change.
When is light bent as it passes through an object?
When the speed of light in the two media is not the same.
If you keep on applying force on a material object can it gain the speed of light?
It can approach the speed of light, but never actually hit it. The reason being that, from relativity, the mass of an object gets exponentially larger and larger as its velocity approaches the speed of light. At the speed of light, an objects mass would be infinite, which can't happen.As an aside, an object can go faster than light if both the object and the light are traveling through a media other than a vacuum. This is because light moves slower and slower through denser and denser materials. If the object has a charge, an effect called Cherenkov radiation occurs. This is light's equivalent to a sonic boom from sound. Measuring Cherenkov radiation was how physicists were able to show that neutrinos (the most abundant particles in the universe) have mass.
