no
Atmosphere is a greater barrier for sound than light.
Y has a long tail and two branches
because it is
is a physical constant. Machs related to an elastic ratio.
I'm a kid and I've known this since I was like 7
Its obvious.
I'm learning...
mep
Because Light is thunder and thunder is faster than sound. When there is a storm you see the thunder before you hear t.You don't know that you can see the fireworks before hearing them, that is because light is so fast.
Because it said 299,792,458 meters per second. 343.2 meters per second? Yeah, it's faster.
The reason why I chose this is because the speed of light is about 300 million meters per second and the speed of sound is 343.2 meters per second and so the speed of light is faster.
Speed of light travels 299,792458 meters per second while speed of sound travels 343.2 per second
Light is an matter of electromagnetic matter which the electrons travels its maximum speed around 299792456 m/sec
there is more metres measured than speed ofsound which means it travels quicker and faster.
because it just told me in the first paragraph... duh
cos i aint Dumbo
XD
I'm not stupid
chegg
Well, would you rather have $299,792,458 or $343.20? :)
you see the lightning strike before you hear it
Light is 300,000km/s goddam nothing we could conceive we made things which travel fast but light is the fastest thing aside from teleportation
Lightning appears before the thunder
because the speed of light travels at about 300,000 k / second and the speed of sound 300m / second.
I'm guessing . I think so .
I don't give a ****
The speed of light has a higher frequency, meaning it can travel much faster compared to the speed of sound, which has a longer wavelength
contact me. I think you know what time travel is. Rkossarian@gmail.com. Its urgent.
because it is dummy **** hole
because it does not need any medium to travel
Duh...
Because I took science classes growing up and wanted to be a science teacher.
the thunder and lightening theory...you always see lightening before the thunder
Lol
its common knowledge
Speed of light is 300 mil meters/sec
Speed of sound is only 345 meters/sec
Light travels faster than sound
I'AM SMART
I guessed
Measured at 299,792,458 meters per second
the speed od light is 1 million times faster than sound.
obious
because it is just that good
.
I picked speed of light because speed of light is the well know thing that can travel very fast.
light travels 300,000 kilometers per second
sound travels 1 kilometer every 3 seconds
It's a secret. "C" you later...
because light of speed is instant
because light is more energetic than sound
Because everyone knows that
it can travel 299,792,458 meters per second compared to 343.2 meters per second for speed of sound. MNot even close.
Because light travels through a vacuum. Whereas sound needs a medium to travel through.
Its faster
because speed of light travel at 299,792,458 meters per second vs speed of sound travel only 343.2 meters per second.
Light travels at almost 300,000,000 m/s and sound only travels at 340 m/s.
Duhh
as we know that sound travels more slower (about 330 m/s)than light(which travels at a speed of 3 lakh kilometer
rfgdgfgvdfd
Sound consists of longitudinal waves whereas light consists of transverse waves as such sound needs a material to travel, light can actually move in a vacuum.
Speed goes faster at 3 x 10e8 metres per second whereas sound goes at roughly 350 metres per second and depends on altitude and temperature among other things.
LET ME GIVE THE EXAMPLE OF LIGHTNING......................WE CAN SEE THE FLASH OF LIGHTNING EARLIER THAN WE CAN HEAR THE SOUND OF IT.............
Because it's said so in the article
The speed of light is faster than the speed of sound.
Because i did
It makes sense
The lightening always comes before the thunder
Skkrt
because it is
oh and because did you know that if the sun went out it would take us 8 minutes to figure it out? That means it would take 8 mins for the darkness to reach earth. :0
its because I read the article. First I thought it was sound. I think.
You see light before you hear sound
n
Light is energy that can travel in a vacuum... Sound requires matter to travel... And is slower because it travel by vibrations...
Numbers never lie. The speed of light is so fast that it is impossible for the sound to "catch up." The speed of light is constant, but speed of sound, or Mach 1, can be altered, changed, and can be utilized in modern aerodynamics, but the speed of light cannot be achieved for that particular use.
When Mach 1 is attained, the sound barrier is broken and a sonic boom is the result. Sonic booms could seriously damage the human ear and body, and even cause damage to the environment around you since sound waves can "break things apart." It's like an unstoppable force of energy destroying a city in a matter of seconds.
Reaching the speed of light, or C, in theoretical terms, could be instant time travel to the future, especially if you are in a vehicle which can resist the side effects of going at such a speed. However, this amazing feat is only achieved in works of fiction, and not in real life. At least that's as far as we know...
Because I'm not an idiot
speed of light 299,792,458 meter per second
speed of sound 343.2 meter per second
Because it's true
During a thunderstorm, I see the lightning before I hear the thunder.
Light is fixed, sound is variable
**** wrinkle
because its faster, ya dip
Light travels faster
Because the difference in relative speeds expressed above indicate light moves roughly one million times faster than sound.
Because it makes sense
The "c" is approximately 1,000 times faster the sound.
light velocity is higher than sound velocity
has a faster velocity
nunya bidnes
Because it's true!
dont even ask
obvious answer
oooookkkkk
because when we go away from the source of sound it seems slow but light is not like this.
Duh! Within the standard medium, the speed of light is 873521 times the speed of sound.
Its value is measured at 299,792,458 meters per second.
sound is measured at 343.2 meters per second
light travels at a speed of 300,000km/sec whereas sound travels at a speed of 300m/sec which is much slower than the speed of light.
Speed of light is faster since light particles or light waves can travel through vacuum and it doesn't need a medium to transfer or travel so it can move fast while sound waves still need medium to travel. And also, light is mechanical wave while sound is transverse.
because we're not stupid!!!
Because when compared to a constant light is 870,000 times faster than sound, and because it would be impossible for sound to be high enough in altitude to match the speed of light without being out of earths atmosphere.

Beacause I like lot's of Chicken

because when you see lightning you always see it before you hear it
because light moves faster than soun d because sounds can have slow beats
because the speed of sound is just much fatser and tha answer was just found...:)
bcoz we all know the sunlight reached to us in second which is about 91 million km. from earth.
but we can't hear the voice of anything after some distance.
you can see it before you hear it light lightening.
because i already know
123km
