What is the speed of dark?
Answers:
Just tried an experiment with a bag of dark and when I opened it it instantly vanished so it must be the same as the speed of light, but beware because dark can hide but light cant
Do you mean black holes?
Good question. As far as I know it has no speed because it is an absence.
same as the speed of light
The same as the speed of light.
Darkness is the absence of light.
If there is a place that has light, then it can move away at the speed of light, creating darkness.
it has no mass, therefore it must be infinite.
Dunno. You might break through the silent barrier.
It is the same as the speed of light. If a light source is terminated, the illumination of a distant object ends only when the last light emitted by the source reaches it. That's the light that was emitted at the moment when the source was terminated, so it reaches the illuminated point after the amount of time that it takes for light to reach that point. The point subsequently experiences darkness, and the effect reaches the point in the same amount of time it normally takes for light from the source to reach that point.
The Speed of Dark is a book by Elizabeth Moon.
"In The Speed of Dark, Elizabeth Moon has created a powerful, complex, and believable portrayal of a man who varies radically from what is defined as "normal." The author insightfully explores the nature of "normality," identity, choice, responsibility, free will, illness and health, and good and evil. The Speed of Dark is a powerful, moving, illuminating novel in the tradition of Flowers for Algernon, Forrest Gump, and Rain Man . --Cynthia Ward --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title."
Same as the speed of light - about 186,000 miles per second.
Infinite, as it has no mass.
Dark is most likely 'Thought Energy'.
How Heavy are your Dreams?
Dark doesn't really exist. It just means an absence of anything to reflect light.
Darkness does not exist, therefore it does not have a speed. Darkness is not "something". It is the absence of something, namely light. Therefore it has no physical characteristics of its own. The same can be said of silence (absence of sound), and cold (absence of heat). Heat, sound, and light can be measured. They can be reflected, refracted, filtered, etc., because they are real entities. You cannot reflect an absence. You cannot measure an absence. An absence has no speed or intensity or any measurable characteristic.
Lol, dunno! Does darkness have speed? Love the question!
the same as the speed of light
as in the world record holder for the 100 metres
Very very slow.
Interspersed with the occasional sudden panicky feeling that one is falling rapidly into something unknown.
:-)
who knows, maybe it's so fast it's absorbed the light on the way..and the fastest 'substance' known, abit like the black holes but that's down to gravity which is so powerful everything is sucked in :-)
It depends how hard you throw it!
When we speak about the speed of light we mean the speed of an electromagnetic wave of a particular wavelength. Dark is not the opposite of this and so has no speed anymore than say cold, hard, yellow or scent has.
0 because balck is the absence of light.
same speed though dark expands larger
Well, it's about 20 seconds. that's how long it takes my polaroid pictures of it to develop.
I suppose it's the reverse of the speed of light, as light speeds away from it or it could just be how fast you can jump off the settee and flick the switch.
There is no theoretical limit to the speed of dark. Imagine a screen placed several metres from a light source. If the light source has a very small width but the light is dispersed on the screen and a bullet is fired across the source at a speed approaching the speed of light the shadow on the screen moves much faster than the speed of light. This does not violate the special theory of relativity, as dark is the absence of light.
