Question

1. which of the following is a true statement.

sound travels faster than light.
sound travels slower than light

Explanation:

In physics, the speed of light in a vacuum is approximately \(c = 3\times10^{8}\space m/s\), while the speed of sound in air is about \(v = 343\space m/s\) at room temperature. Since \(3\times 10^{8}>343\), sound travels slower than light.

Answer:

Sound travels slower than light.
