why would we see a golf ball flying through the air before we hear the noise of the golf club hitting the ball?(1 point)
1 answer
The speed of light is faster than the speed of sound. When we see an object in motion, such as a golf ball flying through the air, light waves from that object travel to our eyes at a considerably faster speed than the sound waves produced by the golf club hitting the ball can reach our ears. Therefore, we perceive the visual stimulus before the auditory stimulus.
