A stained glass window is a substance that transmits different what of light?

Is there any flight faster than light?
No. As Einstein said, you cannnot travel at or faster than the speed of light as 1kg of mass needs 9x1016 joules of energy which would need a lot of fuel, which in turn would in crease the rate making the possibility of going at the speed oflight physically impossible unless you weigh nothing. :)
Can you do cardio and weighs on the same day?
I do weight training and cardio in the same day. I will lift for usually 1.5 hrs then do 20 min oflight-moderate cardio (fast walk on incline on treadmill). I would advise you to not dostrenuous cardio after or before a workout, that can hinder your gains. Keep the heavy-strenuous cardio to your days off from lifting.
How long does it take a signal to reach a satellite in low Earth orbit?
From Earth to an orbiting satellite it takes approximately 200 to 299million M/S or slightly slower than the speed oflight. This varies on weather and atmospheric conditions. The signal is significantly faster, or closer to the speed of light (299792458 M/S), in the Vacuum of Outer Space.
When a body of some mass travels with a speed of light and hits the earth then what happens to the earth?
The mass of a body increases as its speed increases. A body that has any masswhen it's not traveling at the speed of light would have infinite mass when it istraveling at that speed. So its kinetic energy would be infinite, and anything it hit ...whether a bird, a plane, the Earth, or a star ... would be totally blasted to smithereensthat were too small to detect.Fortunately, a body that has any mass when it's not traveling at the speed oflight can never travel at that speed.
Why was Olympia chosen as washingtons state capitol?
Olympia was chosen to be Washington's capitol because it was the biggest and busiest town in Washington.
Relation between refractive index and refractive power?
The refractive index and refractive power are both directly proportional becausedue to power the distance is decrease or increase if power increases or decreasesand to refractive index the bending of light occurs in towards or away. Bending oflight ray and distance of light ray are directly proportional so refractive index andpower are directly proportional.==========================Answer #2:They have very little connection, except that the same big word appears in both terms.Refractive index of a substance is the ratio of the speed of light in vacuum to thespeed of light in that substance.Refractive power of an optical device, like a lens, does naturally depend somewhaton the refractive index of the material used to make the lens, but it's got muchmore to do with the shape of the lens ... the curvature of its surfaces etc.You can make lenses with a wide range of different refractive powers, all out ofthe same kind of glass with the same refractive index. And you can constructlenses that all have the same refractive power out of many many differentsubstances with different refractive indexes, like crown glass, flint glass, plastic,jello etc. So in that sense, the two are completely unrelated.
What is the Mars email hoax?
Each August since 2003, widely-circulated and misleading internet posts and e-mails have erroneously reported a "close approach of Mars to Earth, leading to spectacular views of the planet". But there will be nothing spectacular about the appearance of Mars in August, 2009. The reports are relabeled copies from August, 2003, when Mars was at one of its closest approaches to Earth in their respective orbits. The distance was still 34.65 million miles (55.76 million kilometers). These close approaches occur when the aphelions of Earth coincide with perihelions of Mars on the same side of the Sun. In 1971, Mars was nearly as close as in 2003. Although Mars looked substantially brighter in 2003, it was still only a reddish point oflight. The actual suggestion was that a 75X magnification of the planet would make it appear the size of the full moon. But an accompanying photograph was a magnified 4000X photo by the Hubble space telescope. At its brightest, Mars never surpasses the brightness of the planet Venus.
Would there be colors in a completely sealed and dark room?
There is no color under these conditions.Related Information:-- Color is a sensation that your eyes send to your brain. Different sensationsof different colors are the result of the different wavelengths of light that enteryour eye.-- Black is not a color. It's the absence of light of any color. Light must enter youreye in order to produce any sensation at all. If no light reaches your eye from somedirection, then you see black in that direction.-- The way we see THINGS is by the light that illuminates the thing, bounces offof it, and proceeds into our eyes. The color we see on the thing is the color oflight that the thing did not absorb, and bounced off of it toward our eyes.-- If the thing absorbs all the light of all the colors that illuminate it, then there'sno light left to bounce from it into our eyes, and it appears black.A "green sweater" is a sweater that absorbs all other colors except green.Any light that is not absorbed, and bounces from the sweater to our eyes isgreen light.If there is any green light in the source that illuminates the sweater, then someof it bounces off of the sweater to our eyes, and the sweater appears green.If there is no green light in the source that illuminates the sweater, then no lightbounces from the sweater to our eyes, and the sweater appears black.
Who was the noble prize winner for the speed of light?
Nobel Peace prizes are awared to those who have "done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses". Not for discoveries in physics. There is a separate Nobel prize for physics, but it doesn't seem as if any of those were awared in relation to measuring the speed of light.
Fastest moving object?
Many people believe light is the fastest moving object, yet it cannot be classified as an object. It does have both particle and wave like features yet those particles (photons) are massless, therefore not really an object. Photons have mass when they are moving. And it is a particle so yes light photons at 299792458 m/s which is 3x 10^8 m/s are the fastest moving object
Can you give an example of poem?
Robert Burns's poem below is a good example of the use of simile in a poem. In the first stanza he uses a simile on two occasions when he compares his love to a red rose and a sweet melodie. A simile is where something is compared to another using the words 'like' or 'as'A Red, Red RoseO My Luve's like a red, red rose,That's newly sprung in June;O My Luve's like the melodieThat's sweetly played in tune.As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,So deep in luve am I;And I will luve thee still, my dear,Till a' the seas gang dry, my dearWhile the sands o' life shall run.And fare thee weel, my only luve,And fare thee weel, awhile!And I will come again, my luveTho' it ware ten thousand mile
