⚡ Light travels faster than sound — that’s why you see lightning before you hear thunder! 🌩️
Have you ever noticed this during a storm? The flash reaches your eyes instantly, while the sound takes time to travel through the air. Nature’s own science lesson in action!
👉 Speed of Light ≈ 300,000 km/s
👉 Speed of Sound ≈ 343 m/s
Next time it storms, count the seconds between lightning and thunder to estimate how far away it is!
