The sound travel [tex]1.129 \cdot 10^3 m/s[/tex] faster than the speed of sound in air.
Speed :
The speed is the distance travelled per unit of time by a sound wave
Given information
Speed of sound in water is [tex]1.46 \cdot 10^3[/tex]
Speed of sound in air is [tex]3.31 \cdot 10^2[/tex]
To find how much faster does travel , we need to subtract the speed
To subtract we need to make the exponents same
[tex]1.46 \cdot 10^3\\14.6 \cdot 10^2[/tex]
Now we subtract ,
[tex]14.6- 3.31= 11.29\\\\11.29 \cdot 10^2\\1.129 \cdot 10^3[/tex]
The sound travel [tex]1.129 \cdot 10^3 m/s[/tex] faster than the speed of sound in air.
