"wapish!" you have to exaggerate it a bit.
The sound whips make might be characterized as a crack or snap.The whip snapped in the air above the horse's head, urging it to gallop faster.
The cracking noise is the tip of the whip breaking the sound barrier
A bullwhip works like an extension of a human hand to speed the thinner-half of the whip and then rapidly change the direction of movement. When the change occurs, the tip of the whip actually breaks the sound barrier and makes the crack! of the whip.
Crack a whip, its tip exceeds the speed of sound.
Crack, as in the crack of a whip.
A whip will produce a cracking sound if part of the whip moves faster than the speed of sound. This produces a miniature sonic boom.A whip will produce a cracking sound if part of the whip moves faster than the speed of sound.

The whip, contrary to popular belief the "crack" the whip makes is not the sound of the whip hitting itself, it is a sonic boom.
Probably the whip. The distinctive crack of a whip is made when the end of it breaks the sound barrier.
Air-crafts make a sonic boom known as a "boom'sound or 'whip cracking' (cracking) sound.
The "crack" occurs when the wave of motion traveling down a whip surpasses the speed of sound. The wave can move so quickly because a whip tapers from the handle to the tip. When a whip is snapped, the momentum from the motion at the handle is conserved, and consequently the speed increases as the diameter of the whip decreases. Thus the wave gathers speed as it continues down the length of the whip, and when its velocity exceeds the speed of sound it produces a small sonic boom-the distinctive "crack". Dawie Venter

The crack of the whip is the air molecules trying to push through each other and around each other after the tip of the whip breaks the speed of sound.
