Heat is part of the electromagnetic spectrum. In a vacumn particles travel at over 299792458 m s^-1. So that is a lot faster than vibrations (Sound Energy)

Is heat slower than sound in air?

Heat being transferred in three modes. They are conduction, convection and radiation As far as conduction and convection are concerned they may be slower than sound But radiation is by electromagnetic wave. It has the speed of light. So it is not slower than sound.


Why velocity of sound is slower than normal in winter?

cause the air has less heat(energy) and will vibrate slower.


What word means slower than sound?

The word you are looking for is "subsonic." This term describes speeds that are slower than the speed of sound.


What is Subsonic Bullet?

Subsonic means "slower than the speed of sound" so a subsonic bullet is any bullet that travels slower than the speed of sound.


Does water heat up faster or does land?

water warms up slower than land. It also loses heat slower.


Is the speed of sound faster or slower than light?

Way slower. For reference, the speed of sound is about 767.3 mph and the speed of light is 671,000,000 mph.


Can sound trave through solid?

I am not sure what you mean; sound (in air) is actually roughly a million times SLOWER than light.


How fast can an elf owl fly?

Faster than a moth, yet slower than the speed of sound.


What's difference between subsonic and supersonic?

The main difference is the speed of the object in relation to the speed of sound. Subsonic refers to speeds slower than the speed of sound, while supersonic refers to speeds faster than the speed of sound. In the case of supersonic speeds, objects are traveling faster than the speed at which sound waves propagate in the medium.


Is the speed of sound equal to an electromagnetic wave?

No, speed of sound in air is much slower than the speed of light in vacuum.


What is it called when the sand is hotter than the water?

Water has a higher specific heat than the land. This means that the surface of the water will heat up slower and cool down slower than the land.
