The object would probably disintegrate completely. The speed of light is 299,792,458 meters per second, that's fast enough to circle the globe at least 6 times. The force against the wind would have to be at least 500,000 pounds of pressure, and that's an underestimation. The object would most likely catch fire, as well.

What would you see if you stepped on a scale while traveling at 86 percent the speed of light?
You would be much heavier than normal. The mass of any object increases as its speed goes up.
What is the speed of light at 30 degrees?
That would depend on the medium which the light is traveling through.
When light falls on an object which side do shadows fall?
The shadow will fall on the opposite side that the light hit the object. Assuming that the object is a solid object that you cannot see through, there would be no light on the other side, hence causing the shadow.
How do you block visible light?
Visible light can be most effectively blocked using an opaque, dark-colored, solid object. A brick is only one example of an object that would qualify.
Is a shadow translucent?
The shadow is not a solid 'black' colour. It can be the same colour as the object and the shadow allows you to see through it more than an opaque objects shadow. An opaque object would block the light but a translucent object would give a shadow that you could quite easily see through
What is light traveling though an object called?
If light travels through an object, it is still called light. If you want to specify, you might say "light travelling through an object".
How fast would light travel when emmitted from an object traveling 100 million miles per hour?
The speed of light is constant. It is 671,000,000 mph.
Object traveling through the speed of light?
Electrons are able to travel close to speed of light.
How long would it take to get to betelgeuse in a spaceship?
That depends on the speed of the spaceship. If it were traveling at the speed of light, which is the maximum speed that any object can reach, it would take 640 years to get there.
If a beam of light is emitted from a light source that is moving backwards at the speed of light would light be emitted?
It is not possible for any physical object to accelerated to the speed of light. But in one particular extreme it is possible to slow the speed of light according to the Bose-Einstein Condensate. The question better stated would be "Would an independent observer see light emanating from a source that is traveling backwards at the speed of light?" Yes. Light always travels at the same rate. No matter how fast you are traveling, any light that you emit will always travel at a constant rate. (note that it's not possible for a physical object to actually travel at the speed of light in a vacuum).
What will happen when an object will try to travel at more than the speed of light?
Nobody knows for sure. We have never witnessed a physical object traveling faster than the speed of light.
How long would it take for speed of light to travel a quintillion miles?
The speed of light doesn't travel at all. It just lays there, typicallyon a printed page in a book.If an object is traveling at the speed of light, however, then it's acompletely different story. Such an object would cover 1 quintillionmiles in only 170,108 years (rounded).
What would you see if you stepped on a scale while traveling at 86 percent the speed of light?
You would be much heavier than normal. The mass of any object increases as its speed goes up.
What is the time required for an object when it is traveling at the speed of light?
Time required to do what? To move from one place to another, divide the distance by the speed of light.
How far back in time would you go if you traveled the speed of light?
To an outside observer a person traveling at the speed of light would be frozen in time. To the person traveling at the speed of light, things would seem normal.
What stops first a heavy object or a light one?
A light object has less momentum than a heavy object. A light object would stop first.
What color would a green object under red light?
It would be black becasue the object would absorb all the red light, and there would be no green light for it to reflect
