What is mach one?
Mach one is used to denote the speed of an object such as a jet plane traveling at or just above the speed of sound.
A plane is traveling at Mach 0.92 through air at a temperature of 0C. What is the plane's speed?
Mach is a non standard unit based on the speed of sound through the medium, Mach 1 is the speed of sound, and 0.92 Mach is 92% the speed of sound which is approximately 313.0668 m / s or 1127.04048 km/h or 700.310487 mph.
What do mach speeds have to do with sound?
When something is traveling at the speed of sound, 343 m/s, it is said to be traveling at mach 1. When traveling at twice the speed of sound it is traveling at mach 2 and so on. Wikipedia.org, 'The World's Encyclopedia' has an entire article on Mack Number. Refer to the related link in the Related Links section below.
Supersonic jets can travel faster than the speed of sound this is called Mach 1?
Close! Actually, Mach-1 is the speed of sound. anything above Mach-1 (Mach-(1-5)) is supersonic, all the way up to Mach-5, at which point an object is called "Hypersonic". Sometimes speeds above Mach-10 are referred to as "High-Hypersonic". So, a jet moving at Mach-1 wouldn't actually be traveling FASTER than sound, it would be traveling AS FAST as sound.
What is the speed of the 787 plane?
0.85 mach
Speed of jet plane?
Mach 3.7
Aircraft capable of traveling at Mach 5?
There are currently no aircraft capable of flying mach 5. The fastest ever flown was mach 3.1 by the SR-71 Blackbird.
What is the speed of a plane?
The speed of the plane may differ from 250kmph to Mach 3.5+.A Cessna travels at 250kmph but an SR-71 may travel at more than mach 3.5.
What is mach in airplane testing?
The "Mach number" is the speed of the aircraft as a percentage of the speed of sound. So an aircraft going at Mach 0.74 is traveling at 74% of the speed of sound. (Mach 0.74 is a typical airliner speed.)
What is the difference between hypersonic supersonic planes?
A supersonic plane is one that is flying faster than the speed of sound, or Mach 1. A hypersonic plane flies at a speed of Mach 5, so is much faster than a supersonic plane. Mach numbers are used for speeds greater than the speed of sound.
What is the quickest plane?
NASA - Hypersonic X-43A look it up i can go Mach 10 or near it did mach 9.6
What is the average speed of a Boeing 747 plane?
In cruise flight the normal speed is 0.85 mach. Maximum speed is 0.92 mach
