Yes! It is even measurable. Einstein was the first to suggest this mathematically, and scientists have since proven this experimentally and in the real world - thus the discovery and identification of Black Holes in space. Gravity has the ability to bend light waves (thus begging the question - is light energy or matter - and thus described as both photons and waves. Photons would suggest characteristics of matter, and waves suggest characteristics of energy.)
What else can I help you with?
What is the speed of light in zero gravity?
Gravity does not effect speed of light ,so velocity is constant. Even if it effect the effect is negligible. So in short answer is 3*108ms-1 -Thunder
Is a beam of light affected by gravity?
Yes, light is affected by gravity. According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, gravity can bend the path of light rays, a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing. This effect has been observed in various astronomical observations.
What effects Einstein's General Theory of Relativity predicts that gravity has on light?
If light passes by a large mass gravity will pull it down a little, bending its trajectory. If light leaves a large mass gravity will "stretch" its wavelength (decrease its frequency)and if it falls into a large mass gravity will scruntch up its wavelength (increase its frequency).
Does gravity affect the speed of light?
Gravity affects the fabric of space-time. So both space and time will be distorted.
What is the effect of gravity on velocity?
Gravity affects velocity by changing the acceleration of an object. As an object falls, gravity accelerates it, increasing its velocity. Without gravity, an object would move at a constant velocity.
Does gravity have more force in dark or light?
The amount of light doesn't effect the force of gravity.
What is the speed of light in zero gravity?
Gravity does not effect speed of light ,so velocity is constant. Even if it effect the effect is negligible. So in short answer is 3*108ms-1 -Thunder
What effects the speed of a object?
Speed is relative to the speed of light and gravity. So gravity could effect speed.
Value of gravity during solar eclipse?
A solar eclipse is just a shadow; it has no effect on anything other than the Sun's light. It's like a cloud blocking the light of the Sun. An eclipse has no effect at all on gravity, or magnetism, or electricity.
Is a beam of light affected by gravity?
Yes, light is affected by gravity. According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, gravity can bend the path of light rays, a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing. This effect has been observed in various astronomical observations.
How does sand moves?
It Picks it up off the ground and slides it... since its so light gravity has no effect on it
What happens to light near absolute zero Without the presents of gravity?
Temperature has no effect on light. Intense gravity has the ability to bend the path of light slightly. The effect is so small that it was undetected until less than 100 years ago. It was predicted in theory, a sensitive experiment was set up to look for it, and the effect was observed as a slight bending of a distant star's light that passed close to the sun on its way to earth.
How does water move sand?
It Picks it up off the ground and slides it... since its so light gravity has no effect on it
How acceleration effect gravity?
Acceleration does not effect gravity. It is rather the other way round. Gravity can affect the rate of acceleration.
Does gravity bents light?
Gravity will bend (influence) the path of photons (light). This effect is minimal: you would need A LOT of mass (like a black hole or a neutron star) and a very long distance for the photon to travel and to be measured to notice this effect. It is a little strange, as photons are considered to be massless, and should not be influenced by the mass (gravity) of another object. 1. Photons have energy; energy is mass (more or less); mass is affected by gravity. 2. Photons are probably affected by gravity, but you have to worry about refraction of light about a star. So, I think, the total angle is not due to gravity alone. Of course, maybe refraction is a gravity thing?
Does gravity affect light?
Yes as explained in the theory of relativity Yes. Light is affected by gravity, but because light travels so fast, the effect is not noticeable under most conditions. As light passes by something with mass its path bends toward the object in what is called gravitational lensing. We have observed this effect around massive galaxies as the light from galaxies behind them is distorted.
When was Gravity of Light created?
Gravity of Light was created in 2010.
