The velocity of sound in vacuum is?

The velocity of sound in vacuum is 0 m/s because sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the absence of a medium, sound waves cannot propagate and therefore, there is no velocity of sound in vacuum.


Is the velocity of sound at its maximum in a vacuum?

No, sound cannot travel through a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air or water, to propagate. In an environment with no medium, like a vacuum, sound waves cannot travel and therefore do not have a velocity.


Why can an object falling in an vacuum never reach terminal velocity?

In a vacuum, there is no air resistance to oppose the motion of the falling object, so there is no force acting to limit its acceleration and reach terminal velocity. As a result, the object will continue to accelerate indefinitely as it falls through the vacuum.


What light has the highest velocity in a vacuum a. red b. ultavilet c. violet d. blue e. green f. all travel at the same velocity?

f. all travel at the same velocity. In a vacuum, all colors of light travel at the same speed, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. This speed is known as the speed of light.


What is the terminal velocity for iron?

The terminal velocity for iron depends on its shape, size, and the medium it is falling through. For a small iron object falling through air, the terminal velocity is typically around 20-40 meters per second. However, in a vacuum, the terminal velocity would be much higher and dependent on the specific conditions.

Light travel fastest in?

a vacuum (space is pretty much a vacuum). It slows down when it goes through gas, even more through water, glass or diamond (causing refraction or bending of the light).

Does everything travel faster through a vacuum?

Light travels faster through a vacuum. Velocity does not change in a vacuum, so objects retain their original speed and direction unless acted upon by another force, like gravity.


What happens when light passes through something?

The velocity of light is greatest when travelling through a vacuum. When travelling through something else, a glass material say, then its velocity is slower. The refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in that substance. For example light travels in a vacuum about 1.3 times as fast as in water, so we say water has a refractive index of 1.3. And it is likely that the velocity in the glass will be different at different wavelengths of light.


Does light slow down or speed up when it passes the air into the cornea?

A2. The velocity of light is greatest in a vacuum. It will travel at a slower speed in a solid such as glass - (or indeed any transparent substance) and the various colours do not all travel at the same velocity. This underlies the dispersion of colours in a prism.A1. Neither, light never slows down. Ever.


In which materials is the velocity of light greatest?

A vacuum, so no material

Why there is no sound year like light year?

The velocity of light in vacuum is a universal constant. A light year is the distance travelled at that velocity in one year. To define a sound year it would be necessary to also specify the precise characteristics of material it is being propagated through. A vacuum won't do, since sound doesn't travel through a vacuum.
