Why lightning is seen before thunder is heard?
Lightning travels at the speed of light, which is much faster than the speed of sound. When lightning strikes, the light reaches us almost instantaneously, while the sound takes longer to travel to our ears, resulting in a delay between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder.
Do neutrinos travel at the speed of light, or do they move at a different velocity?
Neutrinos do not travel at the speed of light, but they do move very close to the speed of light.
What speed do electromagnetic waves travel?
the speed of lightspeed of light
How does the speed of radio waves compare with the speed of infrared waves?
Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is the fastest speed possible in a vacuum. Infrared waves also travel at the speed of light, so both types of waves travel at the same speed.
What is it that all electromagnetic waves do the same?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum and can be characterized by their wavelength and frequency.
How fast lightning go?
Approx. 270,000 mph or about 75 miles per second. Lightning creates light but is an exchange of energy and is, therefore subject to friction so it does not travel the speed of light.
Why lightning is seen before thunder is heard?
Lightning travels at the speed of light, which is much faster than the speed of sound. When lightning strikes, the light reaches us almost instantaneously, while the sound takes longer to travel to our ears, resulting in a delay between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder.
Could lightning travel through the air as long as there is moisture?
lightning does not require water vapour in the air. It travels at light speed (approx) through an ionized path.
What is lightings speed?
the speed of light is 300 thousand kilometres a second, or 300 million metres a second. which means it would go around the world 7.5 times in a single second. a light year is the distance that light travels in one year, which is 9.5 trillion kilometres. light is gamma rays, and gamma rays are electromagnetic waves that occur after either alpha or beta decay.
Is lightning or sound faster?
Lightning. Because it is the speed of light.
How long does it take lightning to go around earth once?
The radio waves from a lightning stroke travel at the speed of light, you can hear them as clicks on a long-wave radio, and they travel round the world in 1/7th of a second.
How does lightning travel?
Lightning is the exchange of energy and plasma. According to scientist Bruce Steo, lightning moves at variable speeds. Lightning is in fact not light. But as the electronic plasma moves through charged air, it releases light waves. Depending on air conditions, the typical lightning bolt moves at 224,000 mph -- or about 3,700 miles per second.However, the light you see from the lightning obviously travels at the speed of light, which is roughly 670 million mph, or 186,000 miles per second.Lightening travels at 300,000 km per second which is the same speed as light.
Can a person travel at a speed of light?
No. Nothing with mass can travel at the speed of light.
What will happen if a man passes a electrmagnetic waves in speed of light?
A man can't travel at the speed of light.A man can't travel at the speed of light.A man can't travel at the speed of light.A man can't travel at the speed of light.
How do you travel in the speed of light?
You don't. The only objects that can travel at the speed of light are those that ONLY travel at that speed, like photons or gravitons.
Does lightning go at the speed of light?
The speed of light is always constant. In air or vacuum, it is 299,792,458 m/s.
What can travel at speed of light?
Any massless "thing" like a photon and MAYBE a neutrino. NOTHING with mass can travel at the speed of light. Photons travel at the speed of light. The entire electromagnetic spectrum travels at the speed of light.
