No. An object's velocity is completely unrelated to its mass. When you're sitting in your seat on a commercial airliner cruising at 30,000 feet, your velocity is precisely the same as the airliner's velocity, even though, we venture to surmise, there is quite a difference between the airliner's mass and yours.
Twice the speed of sound is called Mach 2. This means an object is traveling at twice the speed of sound, around 1,522 miles per hour at sea level.
That means the speed, compared to the speed of sound. For example, "mach 2" means twice the speed of sound.
Maybe you mean Mach 1 - which is the speed of sound. Mach 2 is twice the speed of sound, and so on ...
Mach 2
No. The sonic boom will be created by any speed that is greater than the speed of sound.
The Concorde, a turbojet-powered supersonic passenger airliner, has a length of approximately 202 feet and 4 inches (61.66 meters). This sleek design contributed to its ability to cruise at speeds over twice the speed of sound. The aircraft was in service from 1976 until 2003, known for its unique combination of luxury and speed.
Twice the speed of sound. Mach 2 :)
Mach 1 is the relative speed of sound through air. Relative because the speed of sound varies with air density. At sea level the speed of sound is about 740 miles per hour. Mach 2 is then twice the speed of sound.
It will fly approximately twice the speed of sound.
