special relativity - Can we accelerate photons to travel at speed of $1.5c$? Or any $xc$ when $x > 1$?






  1. Can we move photons to travel at speed greater than speed of light in vacuum? If no then why? For example: I want to send some photons at 1.5c. Is that possible?




  2. How a photon of light can go from 0 to 67 million miles per hour instantaneously. What is the motive force that propels the photon? Where does the energy come from?




  3. Why is $c$ "limited" to 186,000mps?




  4. Why is the speed of light finite?





  5. What prevents the light from traveling even faster than it does?

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
