[QUOTE="Bigkat650, post: 250743, member: 7270"] It travels [i]farther[/i] going over water due to nothing to block/deflect the sound waves (i.e. hills; buildings; trees; etc.) then it does going over land. Of course there are exceptions when this is not always the case, such as in a huge empty parking lot, or shouting down from a mountain top--just saying in general sound will carry further over water then land. You're right, sound does travel faster in water then in air--but that wasn't the point I was making. [/QUOTE]
