Light is pure energy. Apparently in packets called photons.

Since it (light) has no mass, it always travels at the "speed of light" (which varies depending on the medium its traveling through).

It's motion is the only measurement of its energy content.

What can scientist measure when light rays are emmitted by a moving source?

When light rays are emitted by a moving source, scientists can measure the Doppler effect, which is the change in frequency or wavelength of a wave in relation to an observer moving relative to the source. By analyzing the Doppler effect, scientists can determine the velocity and direction of the moving source.

X-rays consist of fast-moving electrons?

Yes , X-rays consist of first moving electrons ,because high voltage between cathode and anode causes the electrons to accelerate toward the anode,When the electrons strike the anode's target area, X-rays are emitted.

What are the kinds of waving?

There are two basic types of waves : transverse and longitudinal. Transverse waves are like a wavy line. They consist of a single pulse of energy moving in a curved and wavy way. Light waves are transverse. Longitudinal waves consist of rarefactions and compressions. In a rarefaction, the particles are very sparse. In a compression, the particles are very dense. Sound waves are longitudinal.
