Light is usually much, much faster.
The speed of light (in a vacuum) is about 300,000,000 meters/second.
The speed of sound varies a lot, depending on the medium; but in dry air, at a temperature of 20°C, it is about 343 meters/second.
Light travels much faster than sound, through wood.
no from what i have learned light travels faster then sound
no
In air, light waves travel about 871 thousand times faster than sound waves.
Sound requires the physical motion of material. Light doesn't.
Light waves travel faster than sound waves.
No matter what you do to either of them, light is always going to travel at least several hundred times as fast as sound, and most generally about 800 thousand times as fast as sound. Sound will never travel faster than light, in any situation.
Nothing within the known laws of physics can travel faster than light in a vacuum. However, certain theoretical particles known as tachyons are hypothesized to travel faster than light. Additionally, gravitational waves can also travel at the speed of light.
Just to give some clarity, ultrasound doesn't travel faster than sound. It simply resonates at a higher frequency than normal sound. Sound in a lighter atmosphere, or light travels faster than ultrasound.
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.
No, X-rays do not travel at the speed of sound. X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation that travel at the speed of light, which is much faster than the speed of sound.
Yes, light waves travel faster than sound waves. Light waves travel at a speed of approximately 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second) in a vacuum, while sound waves travel at speeds ranging from around 767 mph (1,225 km/h) in air.
