What distance per picosecond ?
"pico..." = 10-12 (one trillionth) 1 second = one trillion picoseconds = 1012 picoseconds = 1,000,000,000,000 picoseconds
Nothing can travel faster than light in a vacuum.
Microwaves travel at the speed of light, which is about 299,792 kilometers per second in a vacuum.
Light travels at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second in a vacuum. In one day, light can travel a distance of approximately 5.88 trillion miles.
Light can travel very fast because it consists of massless particles called photons that move at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. This speed is nearly the fastest speed possible in our universe, governed by the laws of physics.
Light travels 186000 miles (approximately) per second So 1 mile will be traveled in 1/186000 seconds. There are 10^12 picoseconds in a second Therefore light will travel 1 mile in (1/186000) x 10^12 picoseconds and that evaluates to 53763440.86 picoseconds
Yes, they travel some fast!
Copper is opaque to light - light can not travel though it.
the speed of light
it can travel from 380nm [nanometres] to 740nm
"pico..." = 10-12 (one trillionth) 1 second = one trillion picoseconds = 1012 picoseconds = 1,000,000,000,000 picoseconds
Darkness is the absence of light and will therefore travel at the speed of light (6x108m/s)
In a vacuum, electromagnetic radiation travels at a speed of 300,000,000 meters/second. Just convert the picoseconds to seconds, then multiply by the speed of light, to get the distance (in meters).
yes
at the speed of light
Speed of light.
There are exactly 1,000,000,000 picoseconds in a millisecond.
