Question about Electro!

[spidey_17]

Well, how fast his electric attacks, really are?

I was always curious about this so some help would be appreciated.

IIRC, electricity travels at approximately 1/3 the speed of light.

I might be wrong about that though.

Interesting, but i would like to see more opinions, that are more sure as well, so... Bump.

Electro's blast has been dodged by Falcon, so it's not too fast, but I can't give you a speed in measurement.

[spidey_17]

Well, that's why i would need speed in measurement, to know what feast can be considered....outlandish and what very impressive. I think DD has Dodged them as well, but i questioned how well was that feat written.

I am pretty sure a lightning bolt travels at half the speed of light.

Never mind. I just looked it up and that is lightning in a vacuum (149,668,992 meters per second). Lightning in atmosphere is considerably slower. 4,023,360 meters per second is the fastest recorded high atmosphere lightning bolt recorded from space as of 2007.

Light travels at 299,792,458 meters per second in vacuum (in our atmosphere it can be as little as 75% of that value).

Thanks for that Erik.

No problem.
