Light travels faster than sound. Light travels at nearly 300 million meters per second, whereas sound travels at 340.2 meters per second (both at sea level). Light is, thus, about three hundred thousand times faster than sound. (In miles per hour, the sound barrier is 761 mph)
What else can I help you with?
What is faster sound or electricity?
Electricity is faster than sound. The speed of electricity through a conductor is close to the speed of light, which is much faster than the speed of sound through air.
Is the stealth bomber faster than the speed of sound?
Yes, the stealth bomber can fly faster than the speed of sound. It has a top speed of about 600 mph, which is faster than the speed of sound (around 760 mph).
Does sound travel faster than sound?
No, sound cannot travel faster than itself. Sound waves propagate at a specific speed in a given medium, such as air or water, and they cannot exceed that speed. The speed of sound varies depending on the medium through which it is traveling.
What is an airplane that travels faster than sound called?
An airplane that travels faster than sound is called a supersonic aircraft.
Where does sound travel faster in?
Sound travels faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases. This is because solids are more densely packed, allowing sound waves to propagate more effectively through their structure.
Can a sound be faster than a other sound?
yes, sound travels faster in liquids and solids than in gases e.g. faster in water than through air. The denser the solid, the faster the sound travels.
Is the aeroplane Conrade faster than sound?
No, but the CONCORDE flies faster than sound
Which sound waves can be called ultrasonic?
Ultrasonic means 'faster than sound'. This means no sound wave can be faster than sound.
Is light faster than sound or is it the other away around?
Light is faster than sound.
Can airplanes travel faster than sound?
NO they can not travel faster than sound in thunder and lightning
Is there any object that is faster than sound?
Jet planes often fly faster than sound.
What is faster a fighter jet or sound?
A fighter jet can be faster than the speed of sound.
What is faster sound or electricity?
Electricity is faster than sound. The speed of electricity through a conductor is close to the speed of light, which is much faster than the speed of sound through air.
Is the stealth bomber faster than the speed of sound?
Yes, the stealth bomber can fly faster than the speed of sound. It has a top speed of about 600 mph, which is faster than the speed of sound (around 760 mph).
Who flew the aircraft that went faster than the speed of sound?
Captain Charles Yeager, flew the aircraft that was faster than sound.
What are sound waves made by an object moving faster than the speed of sound called?
at the speed of sound a shock wave is created; faster than sound the sound is behind you and it is called a sonic boom
Does sound travel faster than sound?
No, sound cannot travel faster than itself. Sound waves propagate at a specific speed in a given medium, such as air or water, and they cannot exceed that speed. The speed of sound varies depending on the medium through which it is traveling.
