No, sound does not travel faster than a bullet. The speed of sound is significantly slower than the speed of a bullet. On average, the speed of sound is around 343 meters per second (1235 km/h) in air, while the speed of a bullet can range from about 300 to 1500 meters per second.

The FIRST sound would be the crack of the bullet making a sonic boom- most travel faster than the spped of sound. The second is the sound of the gun firing- it takes longer for the sound to get to you than the bullet takes to get to you.


Do missiles travel faster than sound?

yes, Even a rifle bullet may travel faster than sound, but even then, it cannot reach escape velocity. Rockets seem to have beaten the escape velocity problem. A space missile will travel more than 11.2 km/s, which is about 10 times the speed of a bullet. +/- [Sound velocity ~ 330m/s.] The first body to leave the Earth was the Sputnik.

Can a bullet travel faster than the speed of sound?

Yes, bullets travel faster than the speed of sound.

What is faster a f-117 or a bullet?

Based on a little research I just did, the F117's maximum speed is just under Mach 1 (the speed of sound). Some bullets travel much slower than that, and some travel much faster, so it just depends on which bullet you're referring to.
