Sound travels at the speed of sound, whereas radio waves travel at the speed of light.
The speed of radio waves is much faster than the speed of sound.
If you're seated high in the stands at a Baseball game, watching it on the field and
listening to the game on the radio at the same time, it's quite common to hear the
crack of the bat on the radio before you hear it straight from Home Plate.

Is it correct to say that in every case any radio wave travels faster than any sound wave?
Yes. Radio is a form of electromagnetic wave, so it travels at the speed of light. Since sound requires a physical medium and it is (theoretically) impossible for matter to attain the speed of light, the speed of sound can never be equal to/above the speed of light, and this statement is correct.
Is radio static caused by window tint?
if it sounds like "a grating rev counter" when you go faster the sound goes faster? ok ,upgrade your plugs + leads for better ones,
Does a radio wave travel faster than a sound wave?
Radio waves are sound. Therefore, yes, by definition, they travel at the speed of sound.
How does a radio transmit sound?
By radio signals of different ranges

Which travels faster noise or lightning?
lightning travels faster. Light is faster than sound.
Sound travels fastest in what?
sound travels fastest in solid (about 8x faster)
Can a sound be faster than a other sound?
yes, sound travels faster in liquids and solids than in gases e.g. faster in water than through air. The denser the solid, the faster the sound travels.
Which medium does sound travel fastest in?
Sound travels faster in solids than it does in liquids. thus, sound travels faster in liquids than it does in solids
What travels faster the sound?
light
What type of air does sound travel faster in?
Sound travels faster in moist air
Where is the sound travels faster?
Faster in water than in air.
What effect does water have on sound?
Sound travels faster in water.
Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
