Is light faster than sound or sound is faster than light?
Light is faster than sound. Light travels through empty space at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second), whereas sound travels through air at about 1,125 feet per second (343 meters per second).
Why you see a distant event before you hear it?
Because the speed of light is much faster than the speed of sound. Therefore, when the light from that event reaches your eyes, you see it. Then later, the sound from the event reaches your ears, and you hear it. Basically it's just because light travels faster than sound.
What is faster then sound waves?
speed of light
Which is faster the speed of sound in air or the speed of light in air?
Speed of light in air ~ speed of light in vavuum = 3,00 *10^8 m/s speed of sound in air ~ 330 m/s. Speed of light is faster than sound in air
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.
How does light travel witch is faster light or sound?
Light is much faster then the speed of sound. Sound travels at a speed of about 768 Miles per hour, when light travels at a speed of 186,282 miles per SECOND.
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).
Which tavels faster light or sound?
Light.
Do humans process sound or light faster?
Light is what humans process faster
Does sound or light travel faster through water?
Light travels much faster than sound, through wood.
Can light travel as fast as sound?
no from what i have learned light travels faster then sound
What two ways are light and sound different?
sound waves are faster in water than in land, light waves are faster in land
What travels faster the sound?
light
Is light faster than sound or sound is faster than light?
Light is faster than sound. Light travels through empty space at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second), whereas sound travels through air at about 1,125 feet per second (343 meters per second).
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
Light is faster than sound Why you see a ball hit before you hear it?
Because the light traveled faster then the sound of it hitting the ground.
