Perhaps coincidentally, the phrase "light speed" refers to a speed.
It is a speed.

What is the trem for the relationship between the speed of light and the measurements of time and space?
Time and space are related by the speed of light space r=ct where t is time and c is the speed of light.
How is speed directly proportional to light and time?
Neither light nor time normally has any influence on speed.
When is the only time that the light waves travel at the speed of light?
Light always travels at the speed of light. The only time that's 299,792,458 meters per second is when the light is in vacuum.
Is time faster at the speed of light?
No.
What is the speed it takes your light bulb to transmit at the speed of light?
By definition, light travels at the speed of light. About 300,000 kps
Why can astronomers use the speed of light to calculate distances?
Because visible light is emitted at a known frequency (a time) and then it is as simple as Speed = Distance / Time therefore Distance = Speed x Time.
What is the only time that light waves travel at the speed of light?
Light always travels at the speed of light. The only time that's 299,792,458 meters per second ( " c " ) is when it's traveling in vacuum.
If time and distance approach zero relative to an observer as one approaches light speed and light travels at light speed wouldn't an observer see light going faster than it is?
time dilates, space contracts, speed of light holds constant.
Time difference of objects at speed of light compared to time on earth?
If you observe a clock moving past you at the speed of light, it will appear to you to have stopped.
What is the time required for an object when it is traveling at the speed of light?
Time required to do what? To move from one place to another, divide the distance by the speed of light.
When is the only time that light travels at the speed of light?
Light always travels at the speed of light, although that's a different number in different substances.
Why is light measured in distance and not in time?
-- The distance that light travels in some amount of time is expressed in units of distance. -- The time that it takes light to cover some amount of distance is expressed in units of time. -- The speed of light is expressed in units of speed . . . distance/time
