Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
In an atmosphere with less space, light moves at a speed of about

299, 792, 458 m / s

. The term "light speed" refers to this. It can move at a speed that nothing else in the universe can! In contrast, the sound wave travels at only about

300 m / s

. Energy is transferred between places by waves. Also, nothing, including water or air, is necessary for light waves to travel. Even in an empty place, they can migrate (unlike sound waves).
