Does sound travel faster than light3/1/2023 ![]() ![]() This can happen in nuclear reactors, because of nuclear fission, which is when the nucleus of an atom splits apart and charged particles – like electrons – are flung out at really, really high speeds. Now, this means that certain fast-moving particles can actually travel faster than light in water. And in water, light only travels at around 75% of its speed in a vacuum. Light travels at different speeds in different mediums, because of how it interacts with atoms and molecules. This means that other particles can potentially travel faster than light, creating a cool blue glow in the process called Cherenkov radiation. But in something like water, light travels a little bit slower. You've probably heard that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. And that's true as long as that light is in a vacuum, like space. Looking for SciShow elsewhere on the internet? ![]() Like SciShow?

John 1:1-4, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ![]() If God gave you a word or a promise, you can rest assured, the light is on its way! That’s why even during the dark times, we must walk by faith not by sight and trust the sound of the Shepherd’s voice…the light is on its way. He said, “Let there be light,” and the light broke forth. And, Light will not shine unless the mouth of God has ordained it as such – The sound of God’s voice always precedes, takes precedence, or priority over things that appear.Īs it was in the Beginning, so it shall be in our day-to-day walk with God. Trust the Voice of the Shepherd – The Light is on the way! When being tempted by the devil Jesus reminded his foe that, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” So God’s Word will always outpace, or precede the light. God spoke, and then the light came forth! Hebrews tells us, “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” While light does indeed travel faster than sound, when it comes to God, the SOUND of His Word preceded the very existence of LIGHT. Einstein’s theory posed that nothing was faster than the speed of light. I say, “mere” because light travels at an astounding 300,000 KILOMETERS per second, or 186,000 miles per second. Sound travels at a mere 332 meters per second (depending on various factors) or 1,176 feet per second. Science will tell you light travels faster than sound. ![]()
