How fast does sound and light travel?
Answers:
Light travels 186,000 miles/second in a vacuum.(299,792,458 meters/sec)
Speed of sound is about 340 m/s or 770 miles/hr depending on temperature
pretty fast
Super fast
Sound travels at 330 metres per second. Light travels at 299792458 meters per second. (The person who give this answer a thumbs down is an a+se hole as they are both the correct answers)
did you know sound travels 10 times faster through steel, light travels fast it takes 6 seconds to travel to the earth from the sun and sound travels at around 700mph i think not sure SOS.
I don't realy know but iI am gussing maybe 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,00. In a minute
light travels in space at - 3x10(to the power)8
light travels through a glass block at - 2x10(to the power)8
the reason for this is when light enters a denser medium it slows down and consequently refracts.
sound travels at 761 MPH and light is 186,000 miles per SECOND !
Speed of light 299,792,458 metres per second
Speed of sound 1225 km/h or 761 mph.
9.2* 10 rease to the power 24 is the exact speed of light
The speed of light in a vacuum is 3 x 10^8 m/s.
The speed of sound depends on what it is travelling through. What we typically experience is the sound travelling through air. The speed of sound in air depends quite strongly on the temperature of the air. At room temperature, the speed of sound is usually taken to be 343 m/s.
try search engine &/or wikipedia etc.
it is not so difficult.
==============================.
It is impossible to travel faster than the speed of light, and certainly not desirable, as one's hat keeps blowing off.
Woody Allen
US movie actor, comedian, & director (1935 - )
==============================.
Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws.
Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
English humorist & science fiction novelist (1952 - 2001)
==============================.
Washington is the only place where sound travels faster than light.
C. V. R. Thompson
==============================.
sound =1,090 ft per sec at sea level at 0 deg cent
light =186,000 miles per sec in a vacume
