Did Concorde break sound barrier?
Yes. The Concorde jet is the only passenger jet that has exceeded the Sound Barrier. The speed of the flight must exceed atleast 720 miles per hour and the Concorde can almost double that. Since there is a booming noise that is loud enough to shake houses, the Concorde is only allowed to fly over the ocean. It travels from New York to Europe, or vice versa.
Why does a space shuttle only brake the sound barrier on its return journey?
This is because the pressure needed to break the sound barrier is impossible to exceed but on the way back, the pressure is reduced and gravity pulls the aircraft down and the pressure for the sound barrier is reversed so it is a bit easier.
How fast do you have to go to brake the sound barier?
Any object traveling at a speed faster than sound will break the sound barrier. That is around 340 meters per second.
What vehicles has broken the sound barrier?
Rockets heading to space. Most newer military fighter jets. The Concorde jet. A very fast car made from a jet airplane.
What happens when something breaks the sound barrier?
A sonic boom occurs when something breaks the sound barrier.
What planes break the sound barrier?
Concorde breaks the sound barrier at 2.02mach Super sonic aircraft break the sound barier. They used the plane x-1
What happens when Concorde plane flies faster than speed of sound?
its simple the sound barrier is broken :D
Where did chuck invent the plane to brake the sound barrier?
Chuck Yeager piloted the plane that broke the sound barrier, but he didn't invent it.

Can commercial airplanes break the sound barrier?
The Concorde was a supersonic commercial airliner. However, due to flight accidents the Concorde is no longer in service. The typical cruise speed for a commercial jet is about 0.8 Mach. Of course, almost any plane with sufficient engines and built for speed can dive down and break the sound barrier---but it may not recover from this.
Why did chuck brake the sound barrier?
He was drunk and it seemed like a good idea at the time.
What is a supersonic aircraft?
Supersonic aircraft are those that can exceed the sound barrier. I.e. Concorde was capable of this. Any craft that can exceed 1 to 5 times the speed of sound falls in this category.
