The speed of light depends on the refractive index (optical density) of the medium through which it travels. It is not affected by temperature.
The speed of light is a constant in a vacuum and does not change, regardless of the medium it passes through.
The speed of light is significantly faster than the speed of sound in air. The speed of light in a vacuum is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second while the speed of sound in air is about 343 meters per second. This means that light travels almost a million times faster than sound through air.
You would be much heavier than normal. The mass of any object increases as its speed goes up.
Particles such as neutrinos and photons have been observed traveling very close to the speed of light. Neutrinos are known to have tiny but non-zero mass, while photons are massless particles that always travel at the speed of light in a vacuum.

If you mean "normal speed" to be the speed at which light travels in a vacuum, then no. Anything that differs from light moving through a vacuum slows the light down to a certain extent.
No, electricity does not travel at the speed of light. The speed at which electricity travels depends on the medium it is passing through. In most cases, electricity travels at a fraction of the speed of light.

If the amplitude of a wave is doubled while the frequency remains constant, the speed of the wave will not change. The speed of a wave is determined by the medium through which it is traveling, not by its amplitude or frequency.
No, green light traveling through air is an example of an electromagnetic wave, not a compressional wave. Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate, while compressional waves, such as sound waves, do require a medium like air to travel through.
No, if you are traveling at the speed of light, time comes to a standstill relative to you, so the concept of turning on a torch and observing its light beam doesn't apply. According to the theory of relativity, you cannot travel at the speed of light as it violates the laws of physics.
The speed of the light while it's in air ... on both sides of the window ...is greater than it is while it's in the glass.
The speed of light is greater in a vacuum compared to in water. In a vacuum, light travels at its maximum speed of approximately 299,792 kilometers per second, while in water it slows down to about 225,000 kilometers per second.
