Light travels faster than sound. In vacuum, the speed of light is about 3.0 x 10^8 m/s while that of sound is 0 m/s (sound needs a medium to travel, hence it cannot travel through a vacuum). In air, the speed of sound is approximately 340 m/s while that of light is the same as in the previous condition.
The matter that transports the sound is called the medium. The speed of sound is how fast the wave or vibrations pass through the medium or matter. The type of matter has a large impact on the speed at which the sound will travel. For example, sound travels faster in water than air. Sound travels even faster in steel. In dry air, sound travels at 343 meters per second (768 mph). At this rate sound will travel one mile in around five seconds. Sound travels 4 times faster in water (1,482 meters per second) and around 13 times faster through steel (4,512 meters per second).
