Radio signal being an electromagnetic wave does not need even a material medium. It has velocity so incredible which equals to that of light as 300,000 km per second. But sound is a mechanical wave which needs badly a material medium and its speed is just 350 m/s in air and some how higher in solids
What else can I help you with?
What travel faster a radio signal or sound in air explain?
Radio signals travel at (essentially) the speed of light, as they are electromagnetic waves like light. Sound waves travel at roughly 1200 km/h. Now you have enough information to answer your own question.
What is an airplane that travels faster than sound called?
An airplane that travels faster than sound is called a supersonic aircraft.
Does sound go faster through water or iron?
Sound travels faster in iron. Usually sound travels faster in media with higher density. Also presence of lattice makes difference too.
Which travels faster sound at 15 degrees Celsius or 30 dgrees Celsius?
Sound travels faster in warmer temperatures. At 30 degrees Celsius, sound will travel faster than at 15 degrees Celsius. This is because sound travels faster in warmer air due to the higher average speed of air molecules.
What travels faster light or sound?
Light travels at approximately 3x108m/s whilst sound travels only at 343m/s. So which do you think is the faster one?
What does propogate faster a sound signal or a radio signal?
Radio signals propagate faster than sound signals. Speed of light (radio) is about 186,000 mps Speed of sound is about 1100 fps (0.5 mps).
What travel faster a radio signal or sound in air explain?
Radio signals travel at (essentially) the speed of light, as they are electromagnetic waves like light. Sound waves travel at roughly 1200 km/h. Now you have enough information to answer your own question.
Which travels faster an digital video signal or audio signal?
Depends. If they're all encoded for transfer by electronic means(radio, fiber, wire) they'll all travel at the same speed. But if you by audio signal mean sound in the air, then sound travels at about 700 miles an hour. A digital signal - electrical/optical - travels at the speed of light (186,282 miles per second) down a fiber network.
What travels faster the sound from a person or a radio waves sent to a radio?
Sound travels at the speed of sound, whereas radio waves travel at the speed of light. The speed of radio waves is much faster than the speed of sound. If you're seated high in the stands at a baseball game, watching it on the field and listening to the game on the radio at the same time, it's quite common to hear the crack of the bat on the radio before you hear it straight from Home Plate.
Which travel faster a radio wave or sound wave?
A radio wave travels about 874,000 times as fast as a sound wave,plus it doesn't need any material to move through, as sound does.
Which travels faster noise or lightning?
lightning travels faster. Light is faster than sound.
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.
What travels faster the sound?
light
What type of air does sound travel faster in?
Sound travels faster in moist air
Is electricity faster than sound?
Yes. In air, sound travels at about 300 or 330 meters/second (it varies, depending on the temperature - also, sound in water or steel, for example, is quite a bit faster). But an electrical signal can go at about 2/3 the speed of light in a vacuum - that would be about 200,000 kilometers/second.
What effect does water have on sound?
Sound travels faster in water.
Will sound travel faster in solid liquid or gas?
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
