It changes slightly, depending on the temperature, pressure,
and humidity of the air.
I use the figure of 340 meters per second.
What else can I help you with?
How fast does sound move in solid?
Sound travels 16 times faster in solids then in air.
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.
Can sound travel faster in air?
sound travels so fast because it feels like it
Why does sound travel so fast?
Sound travels fast because it propagates through a medium, such as air, by causing particles in the medium to vibrate and transfer energy. The speed at which sound travels depends on the density and elasticity of the medium - the denser and more elastic the medium, the faster sound can travel through it. In air at room temperature, sound travels at around 343 meters per second.
Point a is 7.375' from point b how fast do sound travel?
It depends what the sound travels through. The speed of sound in air is 340 m /s.
How fast does sound travel in milliseconds?
Sound travels at approximately 343 meters per second in air at room temperature. To convert this to milliseconds, you would need to divide the distance by the speed of sound. So, sound travels at 0.29 milliseconds per meter in air at room temperature.
How fast does light travel than sound?
it is 3.5 billion times fast in a milli-second I don't know where this answer came from or what it means BUT - sound travels at roughly 700 mph in air at sea level; - light travels at 186,000 miles per second in a vacuum; - assuming we compare sound in air (as it can't travel in a vacuum) and light in a vacuum (as it can slow through a medium such as air or water), then light travels at 830,000 times the speed of sound.
How fast does sound travel through matter?
Sound travels at a speed that is dependent on density. As a rule the more dense the material the faster sound travels. In air, mach 1 (the speed of sound) is about 750 MPH. In water it is about 3316 MPH. (Water is much denser than air.)
Does Sound travels faster through liquids and solids?
Sound travels 5 times fast under water then in the air and even faster through solids. For example speed of sound in: Air = 330 m/s Water = 1500 m/s Steel = 6000 m/s
What is the definition of speed of sound?
Sound is a vibration, a change in presure. In air that vibration travels at about 700 mph ... it varies with temprature and presure (average) of the air. In water it's almost 4 times as fast.
Which travels fastest sound air light or water?
Light travels the fastest among sound, air, light, and water. In dry air, sound travels around 343 meters per second, while light travels at approximately 299,792 kilometers per second, which is much faster. Water and air have slower speeds of sound compared to light.
Can light travel as fast as sound?
no from what i have learned light travels faster then sound
