Why you see a distant event before you hear it?
Light travels much faster than sound - about a million times faster. When an event happens at a distance, light reaches your eyes almost instantly, allowing you to see it first. Sound, on the other hand, travels much slower, taking some time to reach your ears, which is why you hear the event after seeing it.
Is there a tiny particle that can faster than the speed of light and sound?
No known particles can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum, according to the theory of special relativity. In a medium like water, particles such as neutrinos can travel faster than the speed of light in that medium, but not in a vacuum. In solids, sound waves can propagate faster than light as well.
Jan saw the flash before she heard the sound what does this tell you about the speed of light and the speed of sound?
It tells you that the speed of light is greater than the speed of sound.in the environment that Jan was in
Why do you see fireworks before hearing them?
We see the firework works first because the because burning emits light . It is a fact that it travels faster than sound . So the sound energy produced during the burning of fire work reaches us late . So we hear the sound after vizualizing it.
Is the speed of light or sound faster?
The speed of light is about 880 thousand timesfaster than the speed of sound.
Is light faster than sound or is it the other away around?
Light is faster than sound.
Whats faster sound or light?
Light is about 800,000 faster (compared to the speed of sound in air).
Is sound faster than light in water?
No.
Why was light from the rocket seen before the sound of rocket was heard?
Because light travels significantly faster than sound. Speed of light (in vacuum) = 299 792 458 m/s Speed of Sound (at sea-level ) = 340.29 m/s
Why is it that lightning travels faster than sound?
Light speed is much faster than the speed of sound, ergo the light you see in lightning is visible, before you here the sound.
Is sound faster than the eyesight?
No, sound is not faster than eyesight. Light travels faster than sound, with light moving at approximately 299,792 kilometers per second in a vacuum, compared to sound traveling at 343 meters per second in the air at room temperature.
What is faster than a bullet?
* The speed of light in a vacuum, * The speed of sound,

What two ways are light and sound different?
sound waves are faster in water than in land, light waves are faster in land
Does sound or light travel faster through water?
Light travels much faster than sound, through wood.
