How far will light will travel in half a second?
Very Far 149296229 meters inside a vacuum such as space or 92768.375 miles
How long does it take light to travel a distance of 2700 light years?
Well, it takes 2,700 years for light to travel that far. Anything travelling at half light-speed would take 5,400 years. At 1/4 light-speed, it would take 10,800 years.
Minimum speed of light passes through?
GlassIn naturally occurring media the slowest speed occurs in diamond at well under half c. Look up its refractive index, it is the highest.
Susie hammers on a block of wood when she is 85 m from a large brick wall Each time she hits the block she hears an echo 0.5 s later With this info calculate the speed of sound?
To calculate the speed of sound, we can use the formula speed = distance/time. Since the sound travels from Susie to the wall and back, the total distance is 2 * 85m = 170m. The total time for the sound to travel this distance is 0.5s (from Susie to the wall) + 0.5s (from the wall back to Susie) = 1s. Therefore, the speed of sound is 170m / 1s = 170 m/s.
Is Transonic speed faster than Mach 1?
By definition, Mach 1 is the speed of sound. Most of the time it is used to refer to the speed of sound in air, but it can be used to refer to the speed of sound in any fluid. Mach numbers are multiples of this speed, so Mach 0.5 is half the speed of sound while Mach 2.5 is two and half times the speed of sound. The term "transonic" refers to a condition where the speed crosses over the speed of sound - so it refers to a range of velocities of airflow exist surrounding and flowing past an air vehicle or an airfoil that are concurrently below, at, and above the speed of sound in the range of Mach 0.8 to 1.2. In this respect - at least some of the velocities must be below the speed of sound, some at the speed of sound and some faster. The correct term for speeds that are exclusively faster than Mach 1 is supersonic.
Can tornadoes travel faster then the speed of sound?
No. The fastest speed a tornado has peen known to travel is 73 mph, about 1/10 the speed of sound. The fastest wind speed ever recorded in a tornado was 302 mph, still less than half the speed of sound.
If concord traveled at twice the speed of sound and could fly to New York in half the time it took a 747 does that mean that a 747 travels at the speed of sound?
No, this does not mean that the 747 travels at the speed of sound. The 747's travel time is simply longer due to its slower speed compared to Concorde. Concorde's speed is faster than the speed of sound, allowing it to reach New York in half the time of a 747.

Does mach 0.5 correspond to supersonic speed?
One half the speed of sound. This is subsonic.

GlassIn naturally occurring media the slowest speed occurs in diamond at well under half c. Look up its refractive index, it is the highest.
Is it possible to travel half the speed of light?
Yes it absolutely is, however, this is not for humans. At particle accelerators, like the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, Switzerland, physics are able to send particles 99.99999% the speed of light. The particles are only 3 meters per second slower than light itself. In turn, physics are able to shoot a particle half the speed of light approx. 150,000 meters per second.
What is the amount of time it takes light to travel around the Earth seven and a half times?
speed of light = 299792458 m/s time it takes light to travel around the world = 40075160/299792458 = 0.134 seconds time it takes light to travel around the world 7+1/2 times = 1.005 seconds
How far can a bike travel in half an hour?
It depends opon the speed of the bike.
How long would it take for a sound impulse to travel through an aluminum rod 1500 meters long?
Depends on the relative density of the Aluminum, the frequency of the sound impulse, the decibel level of the sound impulse, and lastly the temperature of the Aluminum.Lastly, Who has an Aluminum rod 1500 meters long?
Susie hammers on a block of wood when she is 85 m from a large brick wall Each time she hits the block she hears an echo 0.5 s later With this info calculate the speed of sound?
To calculate the speed of sound, we can use the formula speed = distance/time. Since the sound travels from Susie to the wall and back, the total distance is 2 * 85m = 170m. The total time for the sound to travel this distance is 0.5s (from Susie to the wall) + 0.5s (from the wall back to Susie) = 1s. Therefore, the speed of sound is 170m / 1s = 170 m/s.
