"ms" in this case is short for "meters per second". It means that sound advances that many meters every second.
that means if you are 332 meters away it takes one second for the sound wave to reach you
It means that if a sound is produced at a distance of 332 metres, it will be 1 second before you hear it.
Sound is affected by the media. It travels high speed in solids generally.
Sound travels at 350 m/s at room temperature. At 21 C it travels at 343.6 m/s.
No. Light travels at about 875 thousand times the speed of sound.
Sound has a max speed in which it travels, I believe it has a min speed as well and the amplitude is the variation between the min and the max?
Because the speed of light is much faster than the speed of sound. Therefore, when the light from that event reaches your eyes, you see it. Then later, the sound from the event reaches your ears, and you hear it. Basically it's just because light travels faster than sound.
No, not quite. The sound travels at the speed of sound to your ear.
Sound travels faster downwind. The speed at which sound travels is relative to the medium it is moving through. When sound is traveling upwind, you subtract the wind speed from the speed of sound. When it is traveling down wind you add the wind speed.
Sound is affected by the media. It travels high speed in solids generally.
the sound travels at the speed of sound, but the gasses dont
Sound travels at 350 m/s at room temperature. At 21 C it travels at 343.6 m/s.
Speed of sound travels in gases (like air), in liquids, and in solids. In air at 20 °C speed of sound travels with c = 343 m/s.
sound travels at a certain speed but jets go faster than sound waves
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. Light travels much faster than sound.
Sound is propagated as a mechanical wave. As with all waves it travels and so has a speed.
No. Light travels at about 875 thousand times the speed of sound.
Sound travels through each medium (and each gas) at different velocities.In air, sound travels at an approximate speed of 330 m/s.Factors such as temperature and humidity also affect the speed of sound.
