Radio signals propagate faster than sound signals. Speed of light (radio) is about 186,000 mps Speed of sound is about 1100 fps (0.5 mps).

What travel faster a radio signal or sound in air explain?

Radio signals travel at (essentially) the speed of light, as they are electromagnetic waves like light. Sound waves travel at roughly 1200 km/h. Now you have enough information to answer your own question.


Which travels faster a radio signal or a sound?

Radio signal being an electromagnetic wave does not need even a material medium. It has velocity so incredible which equals to that of light as 300,000 km per second. But sound is a mechanical wave which needs badly a material medium and its speed is just 350 m/s in air and some how higher in solids


Trace the energy transformations from a radio signal to music you hear?

Electrical to sound.


Is it true that the transmitter of a radio station combines an electronic signal with a sound waves?

Yes, a radio transmitter converts an electronic signal (such as audio from a microphone) into radio frequency (RF) waves. These RF waves are then transmitted through antennas as electromagnetic radiation, which can be converted back into sound waves by a receiver like a radio or smartphone.


What is the objective of travel faster radio waves or sound waves?

sound waves


Name the process in a radio which make the signal stronger before the loudspeaker changes it to a sound signal?

Amplification.


What does a radio transform waves into?

Sound.More informationAfter a modulated carrier signal has been received through the radio's aerial, the radio de-modulates it to release the live sound as picked-up from microphones in the radio studio (or was taken from recordings), which was then used to modulate the carrier signal at the transmitter.De-modulation that is done by a radio receiver can be described very simply as "removing the carrier signal to produce the sound".

How does a cell phone transmit sound faster than 741 MPH and how does the signal convert to sound?

Cell phones transmit sound as data through radio waves, which travel at the speed of light (about 671 million MPH). The signal is picked up by the cell tower, converted to digital information, and then transmitted to the receiving phone where it is converted back to an analog signal, resulting in sound through the speaker.


How a radio can capture the radio signal?

Tthe radio waves move in weird directions to create sound.


How does a usb radio transmitter work?

Radio transmission occurs when sound or pictures are changed into waves and transmitted. Radio waves are then sent to receivers. The more powerful that a signal is, the further the signal will travel


Which travels faster an digital video signal or audio signal?

Depends. If they're all encoded for transfer by electronic means(radio, fiber, wire) they'll all travel at the same speed. But if you by audio signal mean sound in the air, then sound travels at about 700 miles an hour. A digital signal - electrical/optical - travels at the speed of light (186,282 miles per second) down a fiber network.
