Is it faster to travel over land or water?
It depends on the thing that is traveling on the water or land.
Why can you travel faster in space than on land or water?
because in space you dont have to worry about turns and obstacles when in air and water you do
Is it faster to travel on land or over sea?
Well it depends proportionally. Yes, traveling by sea is faster than by land. But if the sea route is considerably longer than the land route, the land route may be the quicker option. For example, if you traveled 5 mph by boat and were going 2000 miles to the destination, it would take about 17 days to reach the destination. Now, if you travel 2 mph by land and this route was only 1000 miles, it would take about 21 days to reach the destination. So in this instance, by sea would be faster, though that may not be the case all the time.But to answer the simpler question: Boats are faster than walking.
If it was 3 pm on a sumer day would air be cooler over the ocean water than over the nearby land?
Yes, is the short answer. This is because land absorbs sunlight faster than water does. The opposite is probably true in winter
What cause a sea breeze?
When it's in the day, the land heats up faster than the water in the sea, so hot air rises from the land and cold air from the sea takes its place. So this results in sea breeze.
What two ways are light and sound different?
sound waves are faster in water than in land, light waves are faster in land
Is it faster to travel over land or water?
It depends on the thing that is traveling on the water or land.
Does air travel faster over land or water?
yes
If a sea plane lands in water does a person in the water hear it first or a person on land?
It depends. Imagine the sound is that of the pontoons slapping the water, and the person on land and the person in the water are equidistant. In that case, the person in the water would hear the sound first (albeit more muffled) because water is a denser medium than air, and thus sound waves (vibrations) travel faster through it.
Does sound travel faster and clearer on land or water?
On water because on land there are trees and other plants and buildings to block the sound but on water there are no buildings trees and plants on the surface! Hope this helped :)That does not have much to do with it. sound travels through denser gas or liquid faster. "In common everyday speech, speed of sound refers to the speed of sound waves in air. However, the speed of sound varies from substance to substance. Sound travels faster in liquids and non-porous solids than it does in air. It travels about 4.3 times faster in water (1,484 m/s), and nearly 15 times as fast in iron (5,120 m/s), than in air at 20 degrees Celsius".Air at sea level is about 800 times less dense than saltwater. additionally sound waves that travel through the air and waves that travel through dense liquids and solids are different

Which warms faster water or land?
The land warms faster
Electromagnetic waves travel faster over land or water?
as long as they are both traveling through the air, then the speed is the same.
What part of the earth heat faster water or land?
Land heats up faster than water.
Is pitch higher in water?
AnswerYes, it is because the molecules are closer together (sound moves 4X's faster in water than air).AnswerYes, because water causes sound to travel faster, it will sound like a higher pitch. similar to hearing a car horn as you're driving towards it, the pitch increases, then decreases as you pass it.AnswerNo, if you were to yell in the pool at the top of your lungs and you did the same on land, it would sound the same in the water and on dry land.Question for answer three: how does a person yell under water? You can make noises with air and air bubbles, but that's not making the noise in the water.
A fast way for penguins to travel on land?
A fast way for penguins to travel on land is sliding on their bellies. This allows them to travel faster and farther.
Does material travel faster when the river is flowing down a steep slop or across flat land?
Material will travel faster in a river flowing down a steep slope. As the water slows down, the material will also slow down.
