In 1728, James Bradley deduced that starlight falling on the Earth should appear to come from a slight angle, which could be calculated by comparing the speed of the Earth in its orbit to the speed of light. This "aberration of light", as it is called, was observed to be about 1/200 of a degree. Bradley calculated the speed of light as about 298,000 km/s (186,000 mi/s).

Which recently discovered particle has velocity more than that of photon in light?
The neutrino was recently discovered to have a velocity greater than that of light in a vacuum. This discovery was made in experiments such as OPERA where neutrinos were observed traveling faster than the speed of light, although those results were later retracted.
what is the velocity of light?
The velocity of light coming from a cars lights will be the speed of light C in the substance in front of the lights. It wont be the speed of light+the speed of the car however.
Who discovered velocity in which year?
Velocity was first discovered by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle in the 4th century BC, as he laid down the foundation for the study of motion. He introduced the concept of natural motion, which included the idea of velocity, as part of his extensive writings on physics and natural philosophy.
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of a light wave projected by the laser?
Colors are determined by the wavelengths but all wavelengths travel at the same speed. So no, colors do not affect the velocity of light.
How would you describe your motion in terms of velocity and acceleration as you ride in a car down the street come to a red light wait for the green light and then start off again?
As the car moves down the street, the velocity is positive. As it comes to a red light and stops, the velocity decreases to zero. Waiting at the red light, the acceleration is zero. When the light turns green and the car accelerates, the velocity increases from zero to a positive value, and the acceleration is positive.
Who is discovered a velocity?
Issac newton discovered velocity.
Which recently discovered particle has velocity more than that of photon in light?
The neutrino was recently discovered to have a velocity greater than that of light in a vacuum. This discovery was made in experiments such as OPERA where neutrinos were observed traveling faster than the speed of light, although those results were later retracted.
Who discovered velocity of a wave?
Einstein
What is the velocity of light in meters?
the velocity of light is 300000000 m/s
Who discovered that all objectsheavy or lightfall the same velocity?
Galileo Galilei was the first to explain that heavy and light objects would fall the same way in a vacuum. Keep in mind, objects do not fall with 'velocity,' but with 'acceleration.'
What would be the velocity of ball which is thrown by the man who running at the speed equal to the velocity of light?
As velocity never exceeds the velocity of light.... so i hope a man running with the velocity of light will not be able to throw a ball with any velocity.......... we may get the maximum n minimum velocity with which that can be thrown mathematically that we may get it to be zero................
Is the velocity of a red light lower than the velocity of violet light a?
Not necessarily, but the frequencies are different.
Is the velocity of a red light lower than the velocity of violet light?
No it justs refracts further
Does Light have a speed or a velocity speed of light or velocity of light?
Light travels at the speed of light. There is no general velocity of light because velocity is a vector quantity, it also contains a direction and there is no preferred direction for light rays in general. Another answer: The speed of light has been calculated to be 186,000 miles per second.
Compared to the velocity of radio waves the velocity of visible light waves is?
The velocity of visible light waves is the same as the velocity of radio waves in a vacuum, both traveling at the speed of light (approximately 299,792 kilometers per second).
Why velocity of current equal to velocity of light?
Because charge particles produces magnetic field which causes electromagnetic force that's why moving charges move with the velocity equal to the velocity of light.
How was speed and velocity invented?
"Speed" & "Velocity" are the same thing, they were not "invented" but discovered so to speak through Theoretical physics.
