That doesn't seem likely, given that nothing has been found so far to be faster than the speed of light, and there are certain theoretical reasons to believe that it is not possible. On the other hand, not much is known about dark matter, but it is likely that much of it is slow, i.e., not even near the speed of light.
What else can I help you with?
Can 'dark matter' be used as a type of slingshot for travelling at speeds faster than light?
No, dark matter cannot be used as a slingshot for travelling faster than light. Dark matter interacts gravitationally with normal matter, but we have no evidence that it can propel objects faster than the speed of light.
Is the mysterious dark matter the fastest-moving material in the universe?
Dark matter does not move faster than the speed of light. It interacts gravitationally with other matter, affecting how galaxies rotate and clusters form, but it does not move on its own at superluminal speeds.
How fast does light travel in one second inside a black hole?
Same as the speed of light. Darkness is only the absence of light, so when light leaves a specific "space" (at the speed of light) then the time it takes to be dark there will be equal to the time it takes the light to leave.
Dark matter is inferred to exist because?
Dark matter is inferred to exist because of the gravitational effects it has on visible matter in the universe. Observations of galaxies rotating faster than expected and the bending of light around massive objects support the presence of dark matter. However, dark matter itself has not been directly observed or detected.
Where do the roots of a potato grow faster in the light or dark?
Potato roots grow faster in the dark. In the absence of light, potatoes prioritize root growth to seek out nutrients and water. Light exposure can inhibit root growth as the plant focuses on photosynthesis and shoot development.
Can 'dark matter' be used as a type of slingshot for travelling at speeds faster than light?
No, dark matter cannot be used as a slingshot for travelling faster than light. Dark matter interacts gravitationally with normal matter, but we have no evidence that it can propel objects faster than the speed of light.
When was Dark Matter Moving at the Speed of Light created?
Dark Matter Moving at the Speed of Light was created in 2004.
If you go faster than the speed of light does everything turn dark?
First of all, the conditions you suppose in the question aren't possible. You do not go faster than the speed of light. But to answer the question, I would remind you that one of the most impoortant foundations of the Theory of Relativity is that no matter how an observer is moving, and no matter where the light is coming from, every observer measure the same speed of light. So no matter how you were moving, light from the usual sources would pass by you at the speed of light. (That's the speed you would measure as the light sailed past you.)
Is the mysterious dark matter the fastest-moving material in the universe?
Dark matter does not move faster than the speed of light. It interacts gravitationally with other matter, affecting how galaxies rotate and clusters form, but it does not move on its own at superluminal speeds.
Could dark matter be causing the cosmic speed limit (the speed of light) as light gets slowed down when passing through dark matter?
That's completely unrelated. Light usually slows down when passing through ANY matter. It does not react with dark matter (which is what makes the "dark matter" invisible in the first place), except through the gravitational interaction. The "cosmic speed limit" is a limit on how fast ANYTHING can travel (matter, energy, or information); it is just conventional to call it the "speed of light". This speed limit is for a vacuum - the assumption is NO normal matter, and NO dark matter; the presence of any matter may slow light down slightly.
If someone moves faster than light does it become dark?
It is impossible to move faster than light, as your mass increases as your speed approaches that of light. The Speed of Light would mean infinite mass, which it is impossible to make faster.
Does water evaporate faster in a dark glass or clear glass?
It depends on how much light is shining on the glass. If there is a lot, then the water in the dark glass will evaporate faster because the temperature will be higher. If there is no light, then it does not matter.
It is said that nothing can go faster than the speed of light but does space itself go faster than the speed of light?
that law is meant for matter and other forms of energy. space itself is a dimension like time, and does not actually move. matter moves through space but space does not move. it expands if that's what you meant and it does so because of something they call dark energy. there is also dark matter which they say is responsible for gravity as i understand it; and dark flow which is responsible for all the galaxies in the universe seeming to "flow" to one point as astronomers have observed.
Is dark matter stopping us from moving faster than light?
No, this has nothing to do with moving faster than light. It is simply another type of matter - one that is very hard to detect, and that happens to be very common in the Universe.
If nothing is faster than light then how did the dark get there first?
Get WHERE exactly? It isn't clear at all what experimental setup you are thinking about. Please note that:* Darkness is not a thing in itself; it is merely the absence of light. Darkness doesn't move around. * There are lots of situations in which there is an apparent movement that is faster than the speed of light; the point is that in none of these cases matter, energy, or information actually gets faster than light, from one place to another.
Does a banana rot faster in light or dark?
It rots faster in the light.
If there is a speed of light what is the speed of dark?
Dark does not exist, it is only the absence of light. Darkness is not an entity, so it does not travel and has no speed. In principle, a shadow or nonentity could "travel" faster than the speed of light. For example, if you pivoted a powerful laser a few degrees the point of light would travel across a screen very far away at a "speed" greater than light. Note that this is not at all faster than light motion. You could achieve a similar effect by casting shadows on things very far away. But none of this is actually a "speed."
