About 0.3 meters in a vacuum. Divide that by 1.0003 to get the distance in meters per nanosecond through air. Divide by 1.5 for glass.

Electromagnetic waves or radiation


What happens when a photon strikes an atom?

When a photon strikes an atom, it can be absorbed, leading to the excitation of an electron to a higher energy level, or it can be scattered or reflected, changing the photon's direction but not its energy. In some cases, the photon can also be emitted by the atom as a new photon with the same energy and direction.


The is the particle that carries radiant energy?

The particle that carries radiant energy is the photon. Photons are massless particles that travel at the speed of light and carry electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, radio waves, and x-rays.


How does energy from the sun travel to the planets?

Energy from our Sun travels to the planets through space in the form of electromagnetic radiation, the carrier of which energy is the photon.


How many inches does electricity travel in a nanosecond?

Why is the energy of a photon greater than that of an electron?

The energy of a photon is greater than that of an electron because photons are massless particles that travel at the speed of light, which requires a high amount of energy. Electrons, on the other hand, have mass and velocity limitations that result in lower energy compared to photons.

Discrete bundle of electromagnetic energy?

A photon is a discrete bundle of electromagnetic energy, carrying a specific amount of energy and momentum. Photons do not have mass and travel at the speed of light in a vacuum. They exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.

How many seconds equal 1 nanosecond?

1 nanosecond = 10-9 sec = 0.000000001 sec = 1 billionth of a sec. (Roughly the time it takes light/radio to travel one foot.)
