Air typically travels at a speed of around 1-3 miles per hour within a house. This speed can vary depending on factors such as the force of the HVAC system, the layout of the house, and the presence of obstacles that may impede airflow.

How fast can a wave move?

The speed of a wave depends on the medium it is moving through. In general, sound waves travel at around 340 m/s in air, electromagnetic waves (such as light) travel at 300,000 km/s in a vacuum, and ocean waves can travel as fast as 750 km/h in deep water during a storm.


Why does the smell of bacon travel through the house?

The smell of bacon travels through the house because bacon releases aromatic compounds when it is cooked, which easily evaporate into the air. These compounds are small molecules that can be carried by air currents throughout the house, making the smell noticeable in different rooms.


Why does sound travel so fast?

Sound travels fast because it propagates through a medium, such as air, by causing particles in the medium to vibrate and transfer energy. The speed at which sound travels depends on the density and elasticity of the medium - the denser and more elastic the medium, the faster sound can travel through it. In air at room temperature, sound travels at around 343 meters per second.


How does sound waves travel through air?

Sound travels through air much in the same way as waves travel through water. Sound must have a medium to travel through and can't travel in a vacuum. The sound vibrates one air molecule which in turn vibrates the next molecule in line, and so on. This happens very fast at around 760 mph in air.


How fast can sound travel through a vacuum?

Sound cannot travel through a vacuum as it needs a medium, such as air, water, or solid material, to propagate. In a vacuum, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so the speed of sound is essentially zero.
