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 travels faster noise or lightning?

lightning travels faster. Light is faster than sound.


Why does temperature affect the speed of sound?

Sound travels by vibrating molecules and passing the energy on to a nearby molecule. Sound travels faster through warm air than cold air because the molecules in the warm air are vibrating faster.


What is an airplane that travels faster than sound called?

An airplane that travels faster than sound is called a supersonic aircraft.


Does sound travel faster in cold air or in steel?

Sound travels faster in steel because it is a solid material with a higher density compared to air. In general, the speed of sound is faster in denser materials as the molecules are closer together, allowing sound waves to propagate more quickly.


What travels faster than a sound?

Supersonic aircraft.


What travels faster than a rocket?

Sound, Light....


What travels lighter light or sound?

Light appears lighter, and also travels faster, than sound.


Why is sound louder in cold air?

Sound travels faster in cold air because cold air is denser than warm air. The increased density allows sound waves to propagate more efficiently, resulting in the perception of louder sound in cold air.


When does Sound travels fastest through matter when it is warm cold or not moving?

It depends... It's well-known that sound travels faster through denser (cold air has higher density then warm) media. So if you have a situation when sound travels through either cold or warm air. The speed of the sound will higher in the cold air. From other side if you have air which of course possesses certain temperature which is moving the sound speed will depend on both temperature and the vector of velocity (direction where it is blowing and and value how much it's blowing).


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.


How fast does sound travel through stone?

The rate at which sound travels through stone depends on the stone. Sound will travel faster through warm stone than cold stone.
