What is the speed of Light?What is the speed of Light?
Speed of LightSpeed of Light
• The speed of light can be defined as the The speed of light can be defined as the speed it takes light to travel one meter speed it takes light to travel one meter in 1/299,792,458 of a second.in 1/299,792,458 of a second.
• Presently, the speed of light has a fixed Presently, the speed of light has a fixed value of 299,792,458 m/s. or……..value of 299,792,458 m/s. or……..
• c = 3.00 × 10c = 3.00 × 1088 m/s; m/s; c = f c = f λλ
• Who measured the Who measured the speed of lightspeed of light? ?
c=f c=f λλ or v=f or v=f λλ
• A cell phone transmits at a A cell phone transmits at a frequency of frequency of 1.33 x 101.33 x 1088 Hz. What is the Hz. What is the wavelength of the electromagnetic wavelength of the electromagnetic wave used by this phone? wave used by this phone?
• c = f c = f λλ• 3.00 × 103.00 × 1088 m/s = 1.33 x 10 m/s = 1.33 x 1088 Hz Hz ( (λλ))• λλ = 2.26 m = 2.26 m
GalileoGalileoOne of the first attempts to measure the speed of light. What do you think he discovered?
Conclusion: Light was really fast!!!!

broadcasting at a frequency of 7.30 x 10broadcasting at a frequency of 7.30 x 1077 Hz. For best reception, the rabbit-ear Hz. For best reception, the rabbit-ear antenna used by the TV should be adjusted antenna used by the TV should be adjusted to have a tip-to-tip length equal to to have a tip-to-tip length equal to one-third a wavelength of the broadcast one-third a wavelength of the broadcast signal. Find the optimum length of the signal. Find the optimum length of the antenna.antenna.
• c = f c = f λλ• 3.00 × 103.00 × 1088 m/s = 7.30 x 10 m/s = 7.30 x 1077 Hz Hz ( (λλ))• λλ = 4.11 m = 4.11 m• So, 4.11/3 = 1.37 mSo, 4.11/3 = 1.37 m
