Regardless of the inertial reference frame of the observer, the speed of light will always be measured as 'c', the speed of light. There is no adding or subtracting of speeds as there might by in Newtonian mechanics. Photons are massless particles. Light shows characteristics of particles, and it also shows characteristics of waves, depending on the methods of observation. This is in keeping with the quantum nature of light. As far as we currently know, and according to Relativity, no object in an inertial frame can accelerate to or beyond the speed of light as observed from the object's starting inertial frame. Light is the visible part of the very broad spectrum of electromagnetic radiation.

Basic principle of uv?

UV (ultraviolet) radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than those of visible light. UV radiation is known for its ability to cause damage to living cells and tissues, which is why it is commonly used for sterilization and disinfection purposes. Exposure to excessive UV radiation from the sun can also lead to skin damage and increase the risk of skin cancer.
