Chuck Yeager became the first human to officially break the sound barrier, on 14 October 1947 in the Bell X-1. He reached a speed of at Mach 1 at an altitude of 13,700 metres.
The first such plane was the experimental Bell X-1.
its simple the sound barrier is broken :D
In faster-than-sound flight, a plane can experience a shockwave known as a sonic boom. This is caused when the plane reaches and exceeds the speed of sound, resulting in a sudden, loud noise like a thunderclap. It is a strange phenomenon that can be disruptive and alarming for those on the ground.
There was not a special name for the first flight that went faster than the speed of sound. However, when a plane does go faster than sound, it said to be traveling at supersonic speeds.
Yes they can do that. But they need a ultrasonic plane.
If the unidentified he refers to Chuck Yeager, then it was the Bell X-1.
Chuck Yeager piloted the plane that broke the sound barrier, but he didn't invent it.
You would hear the sound after the plane has passed.

There are a number of claims concerning the first plane to fly faster than sound but some of these claims can not be verified or took place in circumstances which did not count as powered level flight. It is generally accepted that first flight faster than sound that could be officially documented was achieved by Chuck Yeager on October 14, 1947.
Charles Elwood "Chuck" Yeager broke the sound barrier on October 14, 1947 in the Bell X-1, dubbed "Glamorous Glennis".
First man to successfully fly a plane faster than the speed of sound. he went on to set many other records and firsts, but this is the one he is most remembered by.
it vibrates
