Why is the speed of light is less than into water?
The speed of light is greatest in a Vacuum....300,000 meters/second. As the density of a transparent medium increases the speed of light decreases.Recent experiments with Plasma Gases have slowed down light beams to speeds of Feet/second!
When is the speed of sound generally at its greatest?
It is generally high in solids. Greatest speed is in the metals.
Which gram has the greatest mass?
A gram is a gram is a gram whether it be feather or lead (unless of course it can be accelerated to near light-speed).
Is it light speed or the speed of light?
speed of light I think well it sounds right:)
Is it possible to travel at the speed of light in water?
The speed of light in water is less than the speed of light in space. Only light can travel at the speed of light.
What was Albert Einstein's greatest acchievement?
Albert Einsteins greatest discovery was figuring out the speed of light!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What color of light travels with greatest velocity?
All colors of light travel with the same speed.

When do light years become greater?
A light year is the distance covered by light in a year. So a light year is greatest when the speed of light is greatest: that is, in vacuum. However, since much of outer space is near vacuum, a light year is near enough a constant measure.
What happens to speed of light from vacuum to glass?
The speed of light is greatest in vacuum, and somewhat less in any material medium. The exact number depends on the individual material. They're all different.
The greatest velocity that an object reaches?
It has been proven that the speed of light (about 3 x 108 meters per second) is the maximum speed any object can reach.
What is the rate of slowing of the speed of light?
The speed of light, c is greatest in a "vacuum" and is slowed when passing through transparent mediums such as water, glass and crystals. Different mediums reduce the rate of c differently, depending on a number of factors.
Is it the speed of light or light speed?
Is what the speed of light or light speed.ANSWER300,000 km/s
When is the speed of sound generally at its greatest?
It is generally high in solids. Greatest speed is in the metals.
Which gram has the greatest mass?
A gram is a gram is a gram whether it be feather or lead (unless of course it can be accelerated to near light-speed).
When is kinetic energy greatest?
Normally when the speed is greatest.
Is it light speed or the speed of light?
speed of light I think well it sounds right:)
