What dictates how fast sound travels through air?

Essentially it is the density and temperature of the air which determines the speed of sound therein.

A blackbird doesn't go "through the speed of sound", it moves through the air.

How fast do sound waves travel?

Depends on what they are traveling through- the denser the substance, the faster sound moves. It travels faster through water than through air. In air, the greater the air pressure, the faster it moves (denser air). The lower the temperature, faster the speed (cold air is dense). At sea level, 20 degrees Celsius, sound travels through air at 1126.547 ft/second- or about 768.095 mph

How fast does sound take to get from the sun?

Sound must have matter to travel through - we are used to hearing sound that travels through air. But there is no air in outer space. We have heard sound that travels through water, but, there is no water in outer space either. In fact, outer space consists of a vacuum . . . not a floor cleaner, but a condition in which there is no matter - no air, no water, no nothing. So their is no sound transmission from the Sun. Have you heard any?

Sound travels through air. Experiment: Listen. Result: Do you hear anything? That sound has traveled through air.


How fast does does sound travel through air?

About 330 meters/second. However, it varies a bit, depending on pressure and temperature.


How does sound waves travel through air?

Sound travels through air much in the same way as waves travel through water. Sound must have a medium to travel through and can't travel in a vacuum. The sound vibrates one air molecule which in turn vibrates the next molecule in line, and so on. This happens very fast at around 760 mph in air.
