What is different about the speed of sound waves vs. the speed of light?
sound waves are the FASTEST in solids (high density), while light waves are the FASTEST in gas (or no molecules)
sound waves are the FASTEST in gas (low density), while light waves are the FASTEST in solids
Both have the same speed all the time
Both are the FASTEST in the air or gas (low density)
If a satellite or spaceship explodes in outer space, you can see the explosion from a distance but you cannot hear it. Why?
Light waves travel very slow and sound waves travel much faster.
Sound waves transmit energy while light does not transmit energy.
Sound is a mechanical wave and needs a medium to travel through while light is an electromagnetic wave.
Light is a mechanical wave and needs a medium to travel through while sound is an electromagnetic wave.
