How long does it take for a wave to travel 2000 km?
If traveling through water, the wave travels at about 1.45 km/sec and would need 1,379 seconds (23 minutes) to travel 2,000 km. Primary waves traveling through air travel at the speed of sound (. 34 km/sec), and would take 5,882 seconds (98 minutes) to travel 2,000 km.
