Would Light protons stop you if you were going at the speed of light?
PlasticForkgp1164
No - you would be stopped BEFORE you reach the speed of light, by your increasing mass (among other things). As your speed approaches the speed of light, your mass would approach infinity, and it would require an infinite energy to actually achieve the speed of light.Note that the "speed of light" is not really about light. It is a speed limit of our Universe; some have described it as the "speed of causality".

What happens if 2 protons collide at the speed of light?
The short answer is: they can't. Protons, or any other particle that has mass, can't go at the speed of light because it would take infinite energy to get it going that fast. In particle accelerators, they make protons collide at a speed very slightly less than the speed of light, something like 99.99% of the speed of light. It takes a lot of energy to get the protons going that fast, and all of that energy is released in the collision, hopefully making some interesting results.
How fast does light travel to Jupiter?
At light speed it would take 20 to 40 minutes going from earth, and 50 minutes going from the sun.
Are protons and photons the same thing?
No. A proton is a part of an atom, while a photon is a tiny bundle of light energy (or light particle).
What controls the light going into eye?
The pupil controls the amount of light that enters the eye.
What are the particles called that bring heat and light from the center of the sun to earth?
protons
What is the relationship between wavelength of light and the energy of its protons?
The energy in one photon of any electromagnetic radiation is directly proportionalto its frequency, so that would be inversely proportional to its wavelength.Note: There is no energy in the protons of light, since light has no protons.

Does a light bulb produce light?
they produce protons and electrons they are collition then the light produce and heat produce

What is the approximate time it would take to travel a light year?
if you are going the speed of light, it would take 1 year.

Light not going when switching off?
if light is not going off, bad switch or short in wiring to light!!
What type of light does a light bulb produce?
they produce protons and electrons they are collition then the light produce and heat produce
How will painting a wooden box black affect temperature readings on the box?
The colour it's painted will affect what frequency of light the box absorbs, painting it purple would mean it reflects the purple light and therefore will have to subside the protons delivered by the light.
What color are protons and neutrons in beryllium?
protons: blue neutrons: indigo or light purple electrons: red
What Is Does Sunlight Weigh Anything?
Light is composed of protons, which have no mass, therefore light has no mass and cant weigh any thing.
How does a solar eclipse show that light travels in straight?
If light did not travel in a straight line then the light would just bend around the body that is suppose to be making a shadow and no shadow would be observed. as there is a shadow cast by that body this proves that light does not bend and in fact travels in a straight line.
