  • Speed of Electromagnetic Waves: Understanding the Speed of Light
    Electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second (m/s) in a vacuum.

    This speed is often rounded to 300,000,000 m/s for easier calculations.

    It's important to note that the speed of light can vary slightly depending on the medium through which it travels. For example, light travels slower in water or glass than it does in a vacuum.
