Nobody made it up, the speed of light is an inherent property of spacetime and the electromagnetic force. It was first observed and measured during observations of the orbits of the moons of Jupiter.

A beam of light is made of?

A beam of light is made of photons, which are massless particles that carry electromagnetic energy. When a light source emits photons, they travel in waves at the speed of light, illuminating their surroundings.


Can light go faster then the speed of light?

Since light is made of light, whatever speed it goes at is what we call the speed of light. So we'll always see light moving at exactly the speed of light, at least in that particular medium.


What is light made of?

Light is made up of particles called photons, which have properties of both particles and waves. Photons have no mass and travel at the speed of light. When light interacts with matter, it can be reflected, absorbed, or transmitted.


Why gamma rays travel at the speed of light?

Because they are made up of photons, which have no rest mass. Having no rest mass, they are the only particle that is capable of traveling at the speed of light per the lorentz transformation.


What are light photons made of?

A photon is a sub atomic particle is a single enery packet of light As it has no mass it can travel at the speed of light (since it is light) and are created when an electron makes a quantum leap inside an atom.


An indirect measurement of the speed of molecules is made with a?

An indirect measurement of the speed of molecules can be made using techniques such as Doppler spectroscopy or light scattering. These methods analyze the behavior of light as it interacts with the molecules to determine their speed indirectly. By studying the changes in the properties of the light, scientists can infer the motion and speed of the molecules.
