Does sunlight speed up digestion?
No.
Do plants grow faster in the sunlight or shade?
Sunlight will increase photosynthesis speed and growth.
What is the highest speed that can be observed in nature?
The speed of light in a vacuum. Einstein called it "the cosmic speed limit". Nothing, as we understand physics right now, can move faster.
What is faster the speed of light or speed of sunlight?
That's like asking whether a car is faster than a Ford, or whether an animalcan outrun a horse.Sunlight is light, and it travels at the speed of that which it is.
How long would it take sunlight get to Neptune if it traveled at the speed of 300000km?
Your question is not as hypothetical as you may think. Sunlight DOES travel at thespeed of 300,000 km per second. At that speed, once the light leaves the surfaceof the sun, it takes about 4hours20minutes for it to reach Neptune.
How does sunlight reach earth?
the light speed are very fast so light easily reach on earth
Does the sun light travel in infinite?
There's definitely a noun missing at the end of the sentence.Here are the responses to a few possibilities:-- Sunlight travels in infinite silence.-- Sunlight travels in infinite distance unless it hits something that absorbs it.-- Sunlight travels at speed of 299,792,458 meters per second.
What speed is required to stay in daylight when flying around the world?
depends on the flying altitude, and latitude The answer is not as straightforward as the question. To stay in sunlight, an object needs to fly west at a speed equal to the Earth's rotation. At the equator, this speed equals [40705.02km / 86400 sec/day] = 471.1 meters/sec or approximately 1.4 times the speed of sound. At the poles, one can hypothetically sit in a chair and stay in sunlight for days. The speed required in between these extremes varies with the sine of the latitude. At around 47 degrees North and south latitude, one can stay in daylight at less than the speed of sound.
Why is a fire normally seen before it is heard?
cuz light travels faster then sound(speed of sunlight 300 000 km in sec)
Where should I put my drying rack to dry clothes the quickest?
You should put your drying rack in direct sunlight. This will speed up the process.
What effect does sunlight have on the rate of the dissolving process?
In a basic form sun light produces heat, heat act's as a catalyst which speed's up chemical reaction. SO in a nut shell sunlight makes the dissolving process occur more rapidly.
How long would it take to get to the sun if you could travel at the speed of light?
Sunlight takes 8.4 minutes to travel 93 million miles to Earth. It would take us that long to reach the Sun at light speed.
