yes, Even a rifle bullet may travel faster than sound, but even then, it cannot reach escape velocity. Rockets seem to have beaten the escape velocity problem.
A space missile will travel more than 11.2 km/s, which is about 10 times the speed of a bullet. +/- [Sound velocity ~ 330m/s.]

Can airplanes travel faster than sound?
NO they can not travel faster than sound in thunder and lightning
What do you break when you travel faster than the speed of sound?
The sound barrier
What s faster then the speed of sound and light?
Speed of Light======================Answer #2:Many modern aircraft cruise at speeds greater than that of sound.The adjective used to describe such travel is "supersonic".
Do xrays travel at the speed of sound?
They travel much, much faster than that.
What is the answer to what is fatser than the speed of sound?
They are called ultra sonic. They travel faster than sound
Are missiles faster than Railgun projectiles?
No. Missiles are pretty fast but Railgun projectiles are much faster than missiles.
Can airplanes travel faster than sound?
NO they can not travel faster than sound in thunder and lightning
Does sound travel faster than sound?
no. sound is sound so how on earth can it be faster than itself? answer that!
Could sound travel faster in solids or gasses?
Sound DOES travel faster in solids than in gases. The higher the density of the medium, the faster the sound travels.
What do you break when you travel faster than the speed of sound?
The sound barrier
What machines travel faster than sound?
planes
Why does sound travel faster in a soild?
Sound travels through solids faster than other states of matter because most solids are denser than liquids. Sound waves travel faster through denser media than through less dense media. and the solids have high elasticity.. sound travel faster in elastic bodies
Which medium does sound travel fastest in?
Sound travels faster in solids than it does in liquids. thus, sound travels faster in liquids than it does in solids
Does ultrasound travel faster than light?
Just to give some clarity, ultrasound doesn't travel faster than sound. It simply resonates at a higher frequency than normal sound. Sound in a lighter atmosphere, or light travels faster than ultrasound.
