The speed of light in glass is the reciprocal of the refractive index of the glass or 1/(refractive index). Not all glass is the same: its refractive index can range from less than 1.5 for Pyrex (a borosilicate glass) to more than 1.9 for (impure) flint glass. This means the speed of light in glass can range between 0.52 and 0.68 of its speed in vacuum.
Visible light and gamma rays are different parts of the full spectrum of light. Since they are really both just light, they travel at the same speed, the speed of light. 186,000 miles per second.
Radio waves and light are the same exact physical phenomenon, and differ only in their wavelength (frequency). Their speeds are identical.
No, light is not visible to the human eye when it passes through a vacuum because there are no particles in a vacuum to scatter or reflect the light towards our eyes. We can only see light when it interacts with matter such as air, water, or solid objects.
Yes, X-rays travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is higher than the speed of visible light. This is because the speed of light in a medium is inversely proportional to the refractive index of the medium, and X-rays have a shorter wavelength than visible light, allowing them to travel at a higher speed.
No, radio waves and visible light waves both travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. The speed of light is constant, regardless of the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation.
If both speeds are measured in the same medium, whether it be vacuum, water, or jello, then they are equal.
They are equal.
They are the same.
If both of them are in the same substance, then their speeds are equal.
Same speed - light and gamma rays are both electromagnetic waves, but with different frequencies.
No. Their speeds are identical.

The speed of visible light is the same as the speed of gamma rays, which is approximately 186,282 miles per second in a vacuum.
vacuum is measured in pressure. To get a vacuum you need a negative pressure. that would be inches of mercury hg
Deep vacuum is usually measured in microns. This unit of measurement is commonly used in vacuum technology to indicate levels of pressure or vacuum.
A vacuum is not visible, as it is an absence of matter. Matter must exist to be seen, and so a vacuum cannot be seen.
