No, the speed of sound at sea level is around 0.2114 miles per second.
in air sound travels 330m/s
Sound Waves and Light Waves are different. The following are the differences I am aware of:Velocity: Light Waves travel through air and empty space at a speed of approximately 186,000 miles per second or 300,000 kilometers per second. Sound waves travel through air at the speed of approximately 1,100 feet per second or 330 meters per second.Wave Type: Sound Waves are longitudinal in nature whereas Light waves are transverse in nature.Light Waves can travel through vacuum whereas Sound cannot.Hope this helps.
Speed of sound in iron = 5120 metres / sec = 11453 miles / hour
The speed of sound depends greatly on the substance through which the sound waves travel. The speed of sound through air is faster than through other more dense gases such as carbon dioxide, but slower through lighter gases such as hydrogen. The speed of sound, only a little more than 1,000 feet per second through dry air, is almost a mile per second (amost five times faster) through water, two miles per second through copper, and more than three miles per second through steel.
6420.4 Meters a second on average.
At 20o Celsius, at sea level, the speed of sound is approximately 767 miles per hour.
about 347 m/s (miles per second)
Yes. Light travels approximately 186,000 miles every second, while sound waves travel only about 1,120 feet in a second. Light wins the race every time!
Because light travels approximately 87,319 times faster than sound. Light speed is 186,282 Miles Per Second Sound travels at 768 Miles Per Hour (for conversion that is 768 divided by 360 to get Miles Per Second for comparison and calculation).
Light is much faster then the speed of sound. Sound travels at a speed of about 768 Miles per hour, when light travels at a speed of 186,282 miles per SECOND.
With speed of sound at 340.29 meters/sec = 0.211 miles per second, a good estimate is to say the sound will travel approximately 1 mile in 5 seconds.
Sound doesn't travel at all in a perfect vacuum. Sound needs a material substance to move anywhere.
The speed of sound at sea level is about 0.211 miles per second.
it travels pretty fast at about 266.5 miles per second. its pretty cool.
No, the speed of light is 186,282.4 miles per second. The speed of sound at sea level is about 0.2114 miles per second.
Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. Sound travels at around 765 m.p.h., but that can cary a bit depending on temperature and humidity.
It wouldn't travel at all. Sound can't travel in a vacum. (Translation: Sound can't travel in outer space.)
