It's in this light that the introduction, I think, of Galileo in this simile starts to make a little more sense.

就此而论，这个比喻中，关于伽利略的介绍开始有了点意义。

And so when you actually have a device the bits don't flow at the speed of light in reality.

因此，当你拥有一个设备,数据位并不能以现实中的光速传输。

And then confronted with a new case, we found ourselves reexamining those principles, revising each in the light of the other.

当我们面临新的情况时，我们重新检验这些原则，根据新的情况修正这些理由或原则。

So this gives you a little bit of an idea of just how many individual photons there are in a laser beam of light. This is a huge number of photons.

这个给你们一点思路关于,一个激光束有多少独立的光子,这是一个巨大的光子数目。

A gig is 10 to the 9, so it does two operations in the length of time it takes light to get from one foot off the table down to the table. That's amazing.

因此光行进一英尺的,时间内电脑可以,进行两次基本运算,这太神奇了。

And of course it exists in a semiotic relationship to a white light over a street door which means "this is my house; if you wish you can ring the bell but I'd just as soon you stayed out."

当然它是存在于一个语义篇中的,而临街门上的白灯则意味着,这是我的房子，你要进来必须按门铃,但是你最好别进来“

The philosopher seeks to judge those beliefs in the light of true standards in the light of what is always and everywhere true as a quest for knowledge.

Certainly if you buy them out somewhere you're going to get one that's maybe the size of a light bulb, but it's like the flood light in your backyard or something, it's a huge light.

当然,你在外购买时,倒是有可能买到灯泡大小的,不过是你家后院强光灯大小的灯泡,巨大的灯泡

So, for example, we were talking about a threshold frequency as in a minimum frequency of light that you need in order to eject an electron from a metal surface.

举个例子来说，我们谈论的临界频率是,光从金属表面逐出一个电子,所需的最小频率。

And one thing that Einstein put forth is he figured if well, what we're saying is that light is, in fact, a stream of particles, each one of those particles or photons must, therefore, have a momentum.

爱因斯坦提出了一件事情,他指出如果我们所说的光，事实上是一束粒子，那么这些粒子或者光子中的，每一个都有动量。

Light travels basically a foot in a nanosecond. Simple rule of thumb.

光行进的速度是每纳秒一英尺,很简单的经验法则了。

So, we'll take a little bit of a step back after we introduce quantum mechanics, and talk about light as a wave, and the characteristic of waves, and then light as a particle. And one example of this is in the photoelectric effect.

等我们介绍完量子力学后,我们要回过头来讨论下光,作为一种波和它的波动性特征,以及光作为一种粒子,其中的一个粒子就是光电效应。

Obviously, it doesn't mean "come in" in the sense of the red light over a street door.

当然，它不像临街灯一样表示,进来吧。

That makes sense because we're losing energy, we're going to a level lower level, so we can give off that extra in the form of light. And we can actually write the equation for what we would expect the energy for the light to be.

这很合理，因为我们在损失能量,我们要到一个更低的能级去,我们要以光的形式给出额外的能量,我们可以写下光能量的方程。
