will there be any effect on the speed of light ,when it travels from higher dimensions to three dimensions of space ?
What do you mean by this?bellatrix gray said:when it travels from higher dimensions to three dimensions of space ?
i meant, what is the speed of light at higher compressed string theory dimensions?Orodruin said:What do you mean by this?

It never happens that light travels from higher dimensions to 3D space. In theories with additional compact dimensions, those compact dimensions exist at each point in the non-compact dimensions. So it never leaves the higher dimensions, it is always in both.bellatrix gray said:i meant, what is the speed of light at higher compressed string theory dimensions?
and will there be any change ,while it is traveling in higher dimensions?Dale said:It never happens that light travels from higher dimensions to 3D space.

Again, it is always traveling in all dimensions.bellatrix gray said:and will there be any change ,while it is traveling in higher dimensions?
The speed of light is what it is.ccgjg said:does this mean the universe our universe exists within shares the speed of light?

Like gravity?ccgjg said:does this mean the universe our universe exists within shares the speed of light?
I think he/she means that just like the bread slice example of multiverse which explains why gravity is weak, maybe speed of light is also distributed in the multiverse.Drakkith said:Our universe is not known to exist within another universe, so your question isn't answerable.
The speed of light is a fundamental physical constant that represents the maximum speed at which all matter and information in the universe can travel. It is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second, or about 670,616,629 miles per hour.
According to Einstein's theory of relativity, the speed of light is the same in all reference frames and cannot be surpassed. This means that even in higher dimensions, the speed of light remains the same, providing a universal constant that can be used to measure and understand the fabric of space-time.
The concept of higher dimensions has been explored in theoretical physics, but there is currently no scientific evidence to support the existence of more than three dimensions in our physical universe. Some theories, such as string theory, propose the existence of additional dimensions, but they have not yet been proven.
Based on our current understanding of physics, it is not possible for anything to travel faster than the speed of light. As an object approaches the speed of light, its mass and energy increase, making it more and more difficult to accelerate. This is known as the cosmic speed limit.
In higher dimensions, the speed of light still serves as a constant, but the concept of time and space may be different from our three-dimensional experience. Some theories suggest that higher dimensions may have a different structure and geometry, allowing for multiple timelines and parallel universes.
