What travel fast light or sound in the universe?
Light travels faster than sound in the universe. The speed of light in a vacuum is about 299,792 kilometers per second, whereas the speed of sound is significantly slower at about 343 meters per second in air.
How fast is the speed of sound and speed of light added together?
The speed of sound in air is about 343 m/s, and the speed of light in a vacuum is about 299,792 km/s. When added together, the speed of sound and the speed of light do not directly add up because sound requires a medium to travel through, while light can travel in a vacuum.
Why is diffraction of sound waves more easily observed than diffraction of light waves?
Diffraction of sound waves is more easily observed because sound waves have longer wavelengths compared to light waves. This allows sound waves to diffract around obstacles more effectively, producing noticeable effects like the bending of sound around corners or obstacles. Light waves, with their shorter wavelengths, tend to diffract less noticeably and require specific conditions to observe diffraction effects.
When a Cannon fires at a great distance from you why do you see the flash before you hear the sound?
Light travels much faster than sound, so the flash of light from the cannon reaches your eyes almost instantly while the sound takes time to travel through the air to reach your ears. This difference in speed causes the delay between seeing the flash and hearing the sound.
What is brightness as sound is to light?
Loudness is to brightness as sound is to light.
Which is fast sound or light?
Both are fast but light is faster by far.
Can light travel as fast as sound?
no from what i have learned light travels faster then sound
How is the speed of light and speed of sound related?
The speed of light is about 900,000 times as fast as the speed of sound in air.
Which travel faster in coated glass pipe sound or light?
No matter what you do to either of them, light is always going to travel at least several hundred times as fast as sound, and most generally about 800 thousand times as fast as sound. Sound will never travel faster than light, in any situation.
How fast are light waves compared to sound waves?
Light is almost a million times faster.
Can the speed of sound travel faster than the speed of light?
No. Light in vacuum is roughly 880 thousand timesas fast as sound in air.
How fast do echoes travel?
About 1100 feet per second, which is the speed of sound.
How fast can light and sound travel?
Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. Sound travels at around 765 m.p.h., but that can cary a bit depending on temperature and humidity.
What travel fast light or sound in the universe?
Light travels faster than sound in the universe. The speed of light in a vacuum is about 299,792 kilometers per second, whereas the speed of sound is significantly slower at about 343 meters per second in air.
What are similarities of light and sound?
They both travel in the form of waves, and they both travel very fast.
How fast does light travel than sound?
it is 3.5 billion times fast in a milli-second I don't know where this answer came from or what it means BUT - sound travels at roughly 700 mph in air at sea level; - light travels at 186,000 miles per second in a vacuum; - assuming we compare sound in air (as it can't travel in a vacuum) and light in a vacuum (as it can slow through a medium such as air or water), then light travels at 830,000 times the speed of sound.
Does fast have a long or short vowel sound?
The A in "fast" is a short A sound. (The long A would make it sound like faced.)
