Drift velocity, the average speed at which electrons travel in a conductor when subjected to an electric field, is about 1mm per second.
It's the electromagnetic wave rippling through the electrons that propagates at close to the speed of light.

calculation shows that the electron is traveling at about 2,200 kilometers per second.
That's less than 1% of the speed of light, but it's fast enough

how to add Specular lighting : simulates the bright spot of a light that appears on shiny objects
i've got diffused lighting how to add in Specular lighting

Figure 1 shows a fixed vector with the following coordinates ie. components,
a[3 1 2]
in other words,
ax = 3,
ay = 1,
az = 2,


Figure 1

The magnitude (length) of the vector is,

length = sqrt((ax * ax) + (ay * ay) + (az * az))
length = sqrt(9 + 1 + 4) = 3.742

Given vector a its xyz components are calculated as follows,

x = ax/length
y = ay/length
z = az/length

As a "worked example" the vector shown in figure 1 has the xyz components of 3, 1, 2 and a length of 3.742. Therefore, a normalized copy of the vector will have components,

x = 3.0 / 3.742 = 0.802
y = 1.0 / 3.742 = 0.267
z = 2.0 / 3.742 = 0.534
