the energy needed to slow atoms down increases towards infinity the closer you approach the lower cosmic speed limit, 0 km/s > 0 atomic movement is absolute zero
the energy needed to speed up atoms increases towards infinity the closer you approach the upper cosmic speed limit, 300 000 km/s > is the speed of light
Both are unattainable. Perhaps an expert in physics can step in here. I guess the connection if there is one should be found in what determines those limits. I am guessing it has something to do with the uncertainty principle, the curvature of space time and the total energy of our universe. Why? Wet finger technique, pure speculative guess work. That's what my intuition tells me but unfortunately human intuition doesn't really seem to work an awful lot when trying to figure out how the universe works. ^^
Don't take this answer too serious. I am not a physicist and it probably shows :p

What broadband internet connection travels at the speed of light?
Fiber Optic Broadband is the type of internet connection that travels at the speed of light.
If the speed of light in a vacuum is 1.2 times that of the speed of light in a given material what is the index of refraction for that material?
2 (no units)
Is the speed of molecules at absolute zero temperature becomes double?
No, the speed of molecules at absolute zero temperature is zero. This is because at absolute zero, there is no thermal energy present to cause the molecules to move.
How long does light take to travel from the Earth to the Moon if the distance between them is 384000 km?
The speed of light is 300,000 km/second. If you divide the distance by this speed of light, you get the time in seconds: 1.28.
What is the formula for the speed of light and which light between gamma rays and radio have the highest speed?
The formula for the speed of light, in vacuum, isc = 299,792,458 meters/second . where ' c ' is the speed of light.In any material substance, the speed of light isc/(the index of refraction for that substance) . Gamma rays, radio waves, and all other members of the electromagnetic spectrumbetween those, all have the same speed.
What is the value of absolute or relative refractive index?
The absolute refractive index is a measure of the speed of light in a medium compared to its speed in a vacuum, while the relative refractive index compares the speed of light between two different media. Both values help determine how light is bent or refracted as it passes through different materials.
How does one travel faster than the speed of light?
No human or machine can travel the light of speed. No matter how close you are to the speed of light if you have all the thrust in the universe you cannot get going past the speed of light. The familiar notions of absolute space and absolute time independent of your relative motion must give way.
What is absolute refractive index of any medium?
The absolute refractive index of a medium is a measure of how much light is slowed down when passing through that medium compared to the speed of light in a vacuum. It is a ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the medium. The absolute refractive index is a fundamental property of the material and is used to calculate how light rays will bend when entering or exiting the medium.
What property is absolute and independent of frame of reference?
The property that is absolute and independent of frame of reference is the speed of light.
Why can satellites not attain the speed of light notwithstanding they are in absolute vacuum?
As the speed of an object approaches the speed of light, its kinetic energy approaches infinity. An object moving at the speed of light would require inifinite kinetic energy.
Why does the speed of light vary?
The speed of light varies because the absolute speed of light "C" is measured in a vacuum. When light travels through air, it goes slightly slower. When light travels through denser mediums still, such as glass, the speed decreases further still.
Does Einstein's Theory of Relativity implies that nothing can go faster than the speed of light?
It doesn't just imply that -- it is an absolute requirement of Einstein's Postulates that neither matter nor information can travel between two points at a speed faster than that of light.
What is the equation for the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
Depends on the medium in which the wave is travelling. For radio frequency, the connection is the speed of light at 300,000,000 Km/sec Divide the speed of light by frequency in hertz (c/s) and it will give wavelength in metres.
Has anything gone the speed of light?
Light and electricity does. It is probably going to be similar to absolute zero. The closer you get the harder it is to get faster.
Do radio waves travel at the speed of light at the speed of sound or something in between?
speed of light
Is is possible for tachyons to exist?
It seems unlikely, considering that there are good reasons to consider that the speed of light is an absolute speed limit in our Universe.
What broadband internet connection travels at the speed of light?
Fiber Optic Broadband is the type of internet connection that travels at the speed of light.
