Answer by Jeff A
Water droplets in the air can be frozen with around 1/500th of a second (give or take.) That will also stop the motion of a person running, riding a bicycle, etc. Glass shattering would take a faster shutter speed. Most photos like that are taken with electronic flash which gives you an effective shutter speed of 1/1,000 of a second or much faster. These are round numbers off the top of my head but they’ll point you in the right direction.
