To travel where? - That would depend on the distance you want it to travel. In air, sound moves at about 310 meters per second (depends on the temperature). This is about 1,236 kilometers per hour (or 768 mph).

That depends on the distance between whatever makes the sound, and you, who hear the sound. In air, sound travels at about 330 meters/second.
