    Massless Particles and the Universal Speed Limit

    Thank you all for taking the time to reply, my knowledge of physics is very limited, I appreciate your patience. Momentum's connection to total energy requires a formula that evokes c? In Newtonian mechanics light has mass, therefore its speed is not a universal limit. Its speed is simply a...

    Massless Particles and the Universal Speed Limit

    With lower mass it takes less force to accelerate a particle to higher velocities? With zero mass there is nothing to prevent a particle from instantaneously reaching an infinite speed. Hypothetically? Experimentally, we have observed that there is indeed a speed limit. btw, thank you for...

    Massless Particles and the Universal Speed Limit

    Because they have no mass? I'm aware the particles would blink out of existence instantaneously if they did in fact have infinite speed.

    Massless Particles and the Universal Speed Limit

    I was hoping someone could help me with a simple physics question I've been mulling over, I've failed to find an answer using online queries, I suspect my line of inquiry is flawed in some way. I would be grateful if someone could confirm if I've understood this correctly: Particles without...
