What else can I help you with?
Do sound waves or light waves travel faster?
In air, light waves travel about 871 thousand times faster than sound waves.
In what state of matter do sound waves travel faster?
Sound waves travel faster in solids compared to liquids and gases. This is because the particles in a solid are closer together, allowing the sound waves to travel more efficiently through the denser medium.
Do LIGHT WAVES TRAVEL FASTER THAN SOUND WAVES.?
Yes, light waves travel faster than sound waves. Light waves travel at a speed of approximately 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second) in a vacuum, while sound waves travel at speeds ranging from around 767 mph (1,225 km/h) in air.
Why does sound travel faster in a solid than in a gas or water?
Sound travels faster in solids because the particles in solids are closer together, allowing for faster transmission of the sound waves through the medium. In gases and liquids, the particles are further apart, causing the sound waves to travel more slowly due to the increased distance between particles that the waves must travel through.
Through which medium will sound travel most quickly?
when solids are packed tightly/closely together sound waves travel faster
What is the objective of travel faster radio waves or sound waves?
sound waves
Do sound waves or light waves travel faster?
In air, light waves travel about 871 thousand times faster than sound waves.
What are supersonic waves?
Supersonic waves are waves that can travel faster than normal sound waves.
Why do sound waves travel faster in steel than in air or water?
steel sound waves always go faster in solids
In what state of matter do sound waves travel faster?
Sound waves travel faster in solids compared to liquids and gases. This is because the particles in a solid are closer together, allowing the sound waves to travel more efficiently through the denser medium.
Why do radio waves travel faster than the sound wave?
Radio waves are just low frequency light waves. They travel at the speed of light, much faster than sound waves which are just changes in pressure traveling in waves
What waves travel faster sound or light?
Light waves travel faster than sound waves.
Waves travel faster through liquids and solids?
sound
What waves travel faster through liquids and solids?
Sound waves, being longitudinal in nature, travels faster in liquids and solids.
Do LIGHT WAVES TRAVEL FASTER THAN SOUND WAVES.?
Yes, light waves travel faster than sound waves. Light waves travel at a speed of approximately 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second) in a vacuum, while sound waves travel at speeds ranging from around 767 mph (1,225 km/h) in air.
Why do light waves travel faster then sound waves?
Electromagnetic waves travel independently of the medium through which they travel -- while transparent matter can impede its passage, no transfer of energy from molecule to molecule is required as with sound waves and other vibrations. The speed of sound is limited by the motion of molecules, which is faster in denser materials.
In what medium does sound travel fastest - solid -liquid - or gas?
Sound waves travel fastest through solids. *Generally, sound waves travel faster as the density of the transmission medium increases.
