What best describes a flight approaching the speed of sound?
If accelerating to the speed of sound, the subsonic.
What is Subsonic Bullet?
Subsonic means "slower than the speed of sound" so a subsonic bullet is any bullet that travels slower than the speed of sound.
What is the difference between transonic and subsonic speeds?
Transonic being past the speed of sound and subsonic is below the speed of sound.
What is the difference between subsonic and super sonic?
subsonic is moving below the speed of sound, supersonic is faster than speed of sound
What's difference between subsonic and supersonic?
Subsonic is below or slower than the speed of sound, and supersonic is above or faster than the speed of sound.
What speed range do subsonic planes fly at?
Subsonic means any speed below the speed of sound. (Mach 1). So subsonic aircraft range from 0 - 661 knots at sea level. (Mach 1 is 661 knots at sea level.)
What do you called if the Speed of objects less than the speed of sound?
Subsonic
The speed of an object traveling below the speed of sound is called?
subsonic
Does mach 0.5 correspond to supersonic speed?
One half the speed of sound. This is subsonic.
When you travel at subsonic speed are you underwater?
Speed has nothing to do with where you are. You can travel below the speed of sound pretty much anywhere.
What does the term subsonic refer to?
The term subsonic can refer to speed that's lower than the speed of sound. In computer terms, this could mean an open source media server or refer to programming code.
Why doesn't a subsonic aircraft produce a sonic boom?
A subsonic aircraft doesn't produce a sonic boom because it is subsonic, and cannot produce enough speed to do so. A sonic boom is created when an aircraft becomes supersonic, accelerating past the speed of sound. Since it is traveling near the speed of sound at this time, the sound waves build up around it, finally traveling through the air as it is left behind by the aircraft.
