A:
No, it's born with the speed of light. It doesn't need acceleration. Much light comes from atoms with an electron in an excited state. When the electron drops down to a lower energy level electromagnetic radiation is emitted. Thermal excitation, such as light from an incandescent bulb, is a different production mechanism but the speed limit still applies.
