The speed of sound is 768 mph (1236 kph). The world record for high-speed rail was a test run reaching 357.2 mph. Any faster and the train would most likely leave the track assuming they could speed it up without strapping on a rocket.

How can the speed of a wave of sound or light be changed?

The speed of a wave of sound or light can be changed by altering the medium through which it travels. For sound waves, the speed can be changed by changing the temperature, density, or composition of the medium. For light waves, the speed can be changed by changing the refractive index of the medium.

Does thunder break the sound barrier?

No, thunder does not break the sound barrier. Thunder is the sound produced by the rapidly expanding and contracting air around a lightning bolt, creating a shock wave that we hear as a loud rumble. The speed of sound in air is about 767 mph, much slower than the speed of a lightning bolt.


What is the example problem of sound waves?

One example problem involving sound waves could be calculating the frequency of a sound wave given its wavelength and the speed of sound in a medium. This can be done using the formula: frequency = speed of sound / wavelength.


What does sound travel through the quickest?

the denser the medium the faster the sound of speed. it is experimentally proved. for example if a train is appraching and you cant hear the sound you can hear it if you put your head (ear) on the railtrack. but do move quickly if you see the train approaching.....


What are some disadvantages of sound?

Why cant you get your car to go above 250 mph on need for speed pro street?

Because the developers felt that 250 Mph was a reasonable number for their speed cap even tough a third of the cars can reach that speed and should be able to surpass it (If the speed cap wasn't there) on regular gameplay.
