What's fog? Fog is caused by the condensation of water molecules in air. This leads to the increase in the density in air. So, the layman answer can be: Velocity of sound is greater in Denser materials, so during fog velocity of sound is greater. Mathematicaly: v2=Bulk modulus/density

=stress/strain*density

we can say stress due to sound wave normally and in fog is constant.

Therefore, v2 is inversely proportional to strain*density.

during fog this value is less than normal, that's why velocity of sound wave in fog is greater.

How fast can fog travel?

Yes Sound travel faster in fog because fog is made of dens air so molecules are close to each other and sound travel by disturbance in molecules it means molecules transfer sound wave by hitting each other . so they do it on faster rate and it travel faster ( same case for rainy day)


What sound does a boat make in fog?

In fog, a boat typically makes a distinct sound known as a foghorn. This low, loud blast is used to alert other vessels of its presence and navigate safely through reduced visibility. The sound can vary in duration and intensity, often repeating at regular intervals to ensure it can be heard over the dense fog.
