Like the speed of light,does any body ever measured the speed of darkness?

Question

Kindly search for me?

Answer 1

The did, but it was too dark to read the speedometer, so it's still a mystery.

Answer 2

Yes. They have not shunned darkness as a satanic force but tried to find out if ,like light,it does have speed and if so what is it.. The answer depends on the situation, but one can say that in most situations one encounters, it travels with the speed of light.

When one turn off the lights in a room the lights stop emitting photons and one can say that the darkness (or absence of light/photons) propagates as fast as the last photon that leaves the lights. In this case darkness would be propagating at the speed of light.

Theoretically you can let light or a shadow travel faster than the speed of light (and this is not a violation of the theory of special relativity), but that is just a brain-tease..So to conclude: darkness (mostly) travels at the speed of light.

The way light relates to dark is like the way heat and cold relate, Cold is nothing but absence of heat. Thus,when someone says,"Close the window. You're letting all the cold air in" it is the same as saying, "Close the window. You're letting all the warm air out". Of course one can always argue that since one feels cold, or cold air to be specific, that cold is an actual thing that exists like water or something. Actually cold air on our skin is just the air around us having a much lower temperature than us and it's taking our body heat because there is an absence of it in the air. So ultimately cold is nothing more than a heat void.

Light is the absence of darkness. Conversally darkness is the absence of light. You can remove darkness by shinning a light, and then suddenly turn off the light. The speed at which darkness proprogates through the room will indeed be the speed of light.
Darkness cannot move slower than light because where darkness hasn't moved to yet there would still be light. Light cannot move slower than darkenss for the same reason.
Light and dakness are both vectors (direction), so the velocity (also a vector)of darkness would have the same direction (vector) as light.
:
Light travels from the light bulb and moves toward the walls of a room.When the light bulb is turned off, darkness first appears around the light bulb and moves toward the walls of the room.

.
Could we extend the similie of air quoted above.? Could light have darkness ingrained in it as cold air has heat which is releases when it condenses? Does the light release the darkness inherent in it when it goes off? And the room gets dark?Rather than visualise darkness as some dark force waiting in the shadows to pounce upon light the moment it gets an opportunity and gulp it I feel this idea of darkness being inherent in the light as more reasonable.

Diagressing a little I may say that as Satan does not have a kingdom co-extensive with god because if that were so the fight between evil and good can never be finally won.If is more reasonable to believe that darkness is just the asence of light and does not have an independent existence and is nothing to be afraid of. In allotting strength to the forces of darkness we have only superimposing our primodial fear of dark when there were not sufficient sources of light about.

Answer 3

Dear fello

well i can give you some answer u expect



well in this world every thing we measure is about which is unstable in nature , certain things which cause unstable state , see light is an unstable thing which disturrbs the stable darkness, universe is compersised of the many things including the stable aspects darkness , which can be altered by a measurable unstable light. so u need not bouther about a stable one , just think about the unstable one - the light.

Answer 4

Darkness is the absence of light. It's speed is the same as the speed of light!

Answer 5

you're joking, right?

please say yes.

...

darkness is not an object. darkness is the absence of light. darkness does not move. you could measure the speed at which light leaves an area, creating darkness, but you're still measuring the light.

Answer 6

Light is made up of photons, energetic particles that move. Its speed, c, is defined as exactly 299,792,458 metres per second in vacuum. This means that photons travel at this speed through space.
Darkness is not made up of anything. So, there is nothing that moves, so there is no speed to measure.

Answer 7

darkness is nothing but the absence of light, so theoretically it would have the exact same speed as light.

Answer 8

Darkness does not exist. U have to find a place that has absolute no enegy to find darkness, and as soon as U find that place, U send energy in. A reminder: anything that has energy, emmits light (photons.)

Answer 9

darkness is the absorption of light by enviornment. how quick the it absorb. its depends upon various factors such as area, humidity,material srrounded,atmospheric pressure etc. thats why hard to measure as it is. but its less than velocity of light.
