Light travel fastest in?

a vacuum (space is pretty much a vacuum). It slows down when it goes through gas, even more through water, glass or diamond (causing refraction or bending of the light).


Does light speed up or slow down when it passes through the air into the cornea?

A2. The velocity of light is greatest in a vacuum. It will travel at a slower speed in a solid such as glass - (or indeed any transparent substance) and the various colours do not all travel at the same velocity. This underlies the dispersion of colours in a prism.A1. Neither, light never slows down. Ever.


The velocity of sound in vacuum is?

It is told that sound cannot travel trough vacuum. Sound can only travel through medium.

Does everything travel faster through a vacuum?

Light travels faster through a vacuum. Velocity does not change in a vacuum, so objects retain their original speed and direction unless acted upon by another force, like gravity.


What happens when light passes through something?

The velocity of light is greatest when travelling through a vacuum. When travelling through something else, a glass material say, then its velocity is slower. The refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in that substance. For example light travels in a vacuum about 1.3 times as fast as in water, so we say water has a refractive index of 1.3. And it is likely that the velocity in the glass will be different at different wavelengths of light.


Why there is no sound year like light year?

The velocity of light in vacuum is a universal constant. A light year is the distance travelled at that velocity in one year. To define a sound year it would be necessary to also specify the precise characteristics of material it is being propagated through. A vacuum won't do, since sound doesn't travel through a vacuum.
