To get a quick estimate, you can watch an event that is a few hundred meters away - for example, somebody chopping wood with an axe, or doing something else that produces a clear sound. Measure or estimate the distance, and estimate the time it takes from the moment you see the axe strike the wood, and the moment you hear it. Divide the distance by the time. Note: We are assuming that the speed of light is very fast, compared to the speed of sound.
The A in "fast" is a short A sound. (The long A would make it sound like faced.)
Yes, the word "fast" has a short a sound. It is pronounced like "fahst" rather than "fayst."
You don't.
Yes it does. The A had the short A sound as in fad and flag. Fast rhymes with last and past.
A buzzing sound is what you will hear when something is vibrating very fast. For example, a bee flaps its wings so fast and that is what makes the buzzing sound that you hear.
Proving his car was not as fast as a Horse
Sound travells at 743 MPH.
No. The O in disapprove (prove) is a long OO sound, as in move and groove.
no research can prove or disprove that it increases
Both are fast but light is faster by far.
One way to prove that sound travels in a solid is by conducting an experiment where a sound source is placed against one end of the solid material and a microphone is placed at the other end to detect the sound waves. The detected sound waves show that sound can propagate through the solid material. This demonstrates that the particles in the solid can transmit mechanical vibrations that manifest as sound waves.
I believe you mean "why does it matter how fast sound can travel?" There are many reasons for why it matters to know how fast sound travels. it can help with determining the distance of a lightning storm, tuning instruments, and is helpful with ballistics. -Tychusfindlay919
