Will a person be able to run faster in air or in vacuum?
Cl3v3runicorn1997
A person will run faster in air as without oxygen they would die. A dead person doesn't move very quickly.
That said if there was no requirement for oxygen, there would be no air resistance in a vacuum and logically they would move at a negligibly grater speed.

Does light travel faster through air water vacuum or glass?
it travels faster through air.
Does sound travel faster in warm or cold air and why?
sound travel faster in cold air half i give you further other person will give
Will a feather or a wooden ball or a steel ball will fall faster in vacuum?
All will fall at the same speed in vacuum because there will be no air resistance. The gravity will pull all objects in the same force.
Which falls faster a quarter or feather?
the feather falls faster. The quarter falls faster if the height is very tall. When the hight is about a foot or so the feather falls faster. Try it for yourself :)
How can the speed of a light wave be changed?
If you shine light through a different medium, its speed will change. It's faster in a vacuum than in air, which is faster than in a denser gas, etc.
Does light travel faster through air water vacuum or glass?
it travels faster through air.
Can you breathe in a vacuum?
No, as there is no air in a vacuum you would not be able to breathe
How fast vacuum tube works?
it is faster than air as a medium
Why does bromine diffuse faster in a vacuum?
in air, bromine particles keep bumping into air particles which slows the process down. in a vacuum, nothing gets in their way
Do heavier objects come down faster?
It depends on their air resistance, in a vacuum NO.
Is light faster in empty space or in air?
In empty space, ie in a vacuum
Does sound travel faster in vacuum than solid?
Sound needs something to move through to exist and cannot exist in a vacuum. Sound, as we HEAR it, is fluctuation in air pressure. If there is no air, there can be no sound. If you played your stereo at full blast with the speakers facing the wall inside the space shuttle, an astronaut outside would not be able to hear it because there would be no air to transmit the sound. Sound travels faster in liquids and non porous solids than it does through air. It travels slower in dry air than it does in humid air.
Which is faster a heat wave or sound wave?
Any electromagnetic wave in vacuum is about 881,000 times faster than any sound in air.
Is there air in a vacuum?
A Vacuum is the absence of air. So no, there is no air in a vacuum.
What does sound go faster through a vacuum or a solid?
Sound travels faster through a solid than through a vacuum. In a solid, sound waves propagate through the material's molecules, leading to faster transmission. In a vacuum, there are no molecules to transmit sound, so it cannot travel at all.
Does light travel faster underwater than in air?
As compared to what? Compared to air, or to a vacuum, light travels quite a bit slower in water.As compared to what?

What causes evaporation besides heat?
Wind or air movement also promotes evaporation. Evaporation is also much faster in a vacuum.
