Speed of light

>What would happen in a fictional situation not possible in the Real World (tm).

It would look like a unicorn fornicating with a dragon. As good an answer to your fantasy question.

If he was moving at c, implies there's no acceleration so Nvidia has nothing to do with it.

If you could find a reference frame, which you can't, the only thing you would see is all the light that left at the same time you did. Since you're moving at c, and light moves at c, no new light would ever reach you.

Alternatively, you would see the entire universe contacted to an infinitely small point

Alternatively, you could say that time stops for everything outside the ship.

Wouldn#t you see him totally slow?

Let's think about this for a second.

We have a light source. The light travels at light speed to a large block of glass. While in the glass, the light travels at less than light speed. Upon exiting the glass, the light resumes at light speed.

Where does the light get the energy to go from less than light speed through the medium, to once again achieve light speed after being slowed down through the medium?

Is it not obvious that nothing is traveling at any speed?

Is it not obvious that light has a rate of induction, and not "particles" of "light" that are traveling at the "speed of light"?

At the end of the day, do you dump all of the extra photons out of your monitor?

C=wavelength x frequency

As the light travels at a slower speed in the block, its wavelength decreases accordingly to satisfy the relationship above

Thank you very much for your answerr!

Thank you for this video!

>>8672356
no problem, fellow anon

most anons I encountered dislike vsauce because he reads of wikipedia, but if you liked the video I recommend watching his other videos.

And the energy to resume light speed? No?

Is it not obvious that there are not "light particles" that are "travelling" "through" anything at any "speed"?

Think of this logically. You are driving your car at 100 kph when there is a traffic stop. You decrease your velocity until it is zero.

Then you have to add energy to your car to cause it to resume its 100 kph velocity. And let's assume for the moment that's your car's top velocity through the air.

In water, your car would go slower. Same with light.

After the water, your car would go faster even if you put no more energy into your car. Why would the light?

I already knew his channel but never came across this video.

Wikipedia is the main source of information nowadays, so i am not mad if someone puts those informations in a fun, easy to understand and also very very intersting video.

BTW, what do you think about MindField or Brain Candy?

You're dealing with what-ifs: so meaningless answers.
However, the most common-sense answer--IF all this tech and feat were available--would be that "he would seem not to move" over decades, centuries and millenium. It could be imagined in "our mind" that he is in one particular position and not moving, so the tech and gear doesn't need to exist.

Wow thank you!

The light doesn't actually change speed; it forms a standing wave within the material, which propagates at a slower speed than light.

Light reflects on molecules. That is what is 'slowing' light down

>>8672255
Everything would look still in his reference frame.
Justification: go fuck yourself.
