What is the speed of light?

in #steempress6 years ago

The speed of light in the void is 299,792 kilometers per second. When the speed of the world is taken into consideration, this number is very high, but it is very low when considering the structure of the universe.

For example, it takes 45 minutes to travel from Jupiter to the Sun at light speed.

According to Einstein's Special Relativity Theorem, it slows down as it approaches the speed of light.

If you can reach the speed of light, time will stop completely. You know what that means, do not you? When the speed of light is exceeded, time will begin to go back.

An important point to consider is that nothing can reach the speed of light with mass. Because it's closer to the speed of light, inertia is bigger. So if something has mass, it will slow down.

In other words, a mass object can only move at the speed of light. Because it can not move slowly without mass.

In summary, what travels in light speed? Photons, ie massless particles.

Another possibility
Some physicists claim that it is another cosmic factor that affects the speed of light: Quantum Cavity Vacuum. According to this theory, the gaps in the gap are not actually empty. These voids are filled with particles that change the state between existence and non-existence.

Thus, quantum oscillations can reduce the speed of light.

But this theory is still controversial and does not even answer the most basic question: "What if we do not resemble the measure of speed of light, or what happens forever?"

He actually solved all of our problems. Because nothing would happen!

I wish i could cross the speed of light and cross the time range so I could travel in time

yes, I wish but it's impossible (for now)
