Sound travels fast because it propagates through a medium, such as air, by causing particles in the medium to vibrate and transfer energy. The speed at which sound travels depends on the density and elasticity of the medium - the denser and more elastic the medium, the faster sound can travel through it. In air at room temperature, sound travels at around 343 meters per second.
What else can I help you with?
How fast can sound travel through a vacuum?
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum as it needs a medium, such as air, water, or solid material, to propagate. In a vacuum, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so the speed of sound is essentially zero.
How fast is the speed of sound in a vacuum?
The speed of sound cannot be measured in a vacuum because there is no medium for sound waves to travel through in a vacuum. Sound requires a medium such as air, water, or solids to propagate.
Does sound travel in vaccum?
No, sound cannot travel in a vacuum because it requires a medium (such as air, water, or a solid material) to propagate. In the absence of a medium, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so sound cannot be transmitted.
How fast do sound waves travel in kilometers per hour?
Sound travels at 1,225.044 kilometers per hour at sea level.
Does sound travel up or down in a vacuum?
Sound does not travel in a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air or water, to propagate. In the absence of a medium, there is no material for sound waves to travel through, so sound cannot travel up or down in a vacuum.
How fast can sound travel through a vacuum?
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum as it needs a medium, such as air, water, or solid material, to propagate. In a vacuum, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so the speed of sound is essentially zero.
Where does sound travel fast through?
Oxygen
Can light travel as fast as sound?
no from what i have learned light travels faster then sound
What material does sound travel fast through?
Solids
How fast does sound travel in seconds?
1000 feet
How fast travel sound through water?
3400mph
Are scientists still trying to invent something that can go the speed of sound so that you can learn about sound travel?
no scientists already have made something this fast
Why does is matter how fast sound can travel?
I believe you mean "why does it matter how fast sound can travel?" There are many reasons for why it matters to know how fast sound travels. it can help with determining the distance of a lightning storm, tuning instruments, and is helpful with ballistics. -Tychusfindlay919
Why do sound waves travel fast in the state of matter of solid?
All the molecules are packed in tight and in an orderly fashion so the sound can travel faster through it. Gases have molecules away from each other so the sound cannot be passed through the vibrating and bouncing molecules so well.
Who fast does sound travel through water?
3,348 mph.
How fast does sound travel through custard?
900 years
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.
