    The speed of light (meaning speed of light in vacuum)‚ usually denoted by c‚ is a physical constant important in many areas of physics. Its value is 299‚792‚458 metres per second‚ a figure that is exact since the length of the metre is defined from this constant and the international standard for time.[2] This speed is approximately 186‚282 miles per second. It is the maximum speed at which all energy‚ matter‚ and information in the universe can travel. It is the speed of all massless particles and

    seemingly intricate things in nature can be understood in terms of relatively straightforward mathematical relationships. These mathematical relationships are a recurring concept in the fields of Kinematics and Dynamics which focuses on ways in which objects/matter move whilst evaluating behaviours like displacement‚ acceleration and velocity (Wise Geek‚ 03-13). Kinematics derives its name from the Greek word for “motion” (kinema) (Sparknotes‚ 2011). This field is centred under a sub branch of mechanics
