The speed of light is constant at about 300,000 km/s in a vacuum, so light does not experience acceleration.

If Light travels in a straight line at a constant speed of 300000 kilometers per second What is the light's acceleration?

Light does not accelerate as it always travels at a constant speed of 300,000 kilometers per second in a straight line, as per the laws of physics. This is because light does not have mass and therefore does not experience acceleration in the same way that objects with mass do.


What is light's acceleration if its traveling at a constant speed of 300000 km s?

It has no acceleration. The definition of acceleration is the change in velocity over time, so if it is traveling at a constant speed, it has no acceleration. Also, the speed of light is a constant, which means it does not change.


If you plot the distance that light travels on the graph and it travels at a speed of 300000 kilometers per second what is the slope of the graph?

If you are plotting distance versus time it is a straight line with slope 300000


Light travels about 300000 km in a single second through air?

No. In a vacuum.


Light from a star travels from earth in a straight line at a constant speed of 300000 kilometers per second What is the acceleration of the light?

The speed of light is a constant, so the acceleration is zero. However, light IS affected by gravity, and gravity causes an acceleration. How does this balance? The light moves at the same speed - the speed of light, abbreviated "c" - but loses or gains energy as the light moves toward or away from the gravity source. In gaining energy (without speeding up!) the frequency of the light is increased and the wavelength of the light (or any electromagnetic energy) is decreased, In losing energy, the wavelength is increased and the wavelength decreased. This could be a trick question, of course. Light from a star wouldn't be travelling from earth, unless we are talking about reflected light, which would not be particularly intense, but it is not out of the question.

What is 95 percent of 300000?

95% of 300000= 95% * 300000= 0.95 * 300000= 285,000


What is 300000 80 percent of?

80% of 300000 = 240000 = 80% * 300000 = 80%/100% * 300000 = 240000


What is 8 percent of 300000?

8% of 300000 = 300000*8/100 = 24000
