Did the bloodhound break the sound barrier?
Bloodhound SSC has not made her first run yet. So far as I can tell, it has not been yet scheduled.
How does sound proofing work?
Sound proofing works by having alternating layers of material and air that deaden the sound waves as they transfer through each layer. "Soft" materials work well because vibrations/sound waves don't transfer through them as easily. If glass is to be used it needs to be double paned with a vacuum barrier between the two panes
Why sound travels faster than light?
Sound does not travel faster than light. The speed of light is 299,792,458 meters per second The speed of sound is 343.14 meters per second or, light travels at 186,000 miles per second sound at 751 MPH
How fast does sound travel through your ear?
Technically sound is classified as a vibration of the air, so if there is a sound traveling through it, it travels at the speed of sound, which is 768 mph. The inner parts of the ear will be slower. The auditory ossicles are mechanical, so they will delay the sound accordingly, a small fraction of a second. Then when the auditory nerve is stimulated to send its message to the temporal lobe of the brain, it follows a myelinated path along the axons and can travel up to 200 mph.
How do you calculate the change of frequency of a quartz crystal by applying pressure on the crystal?
you compress and release the pressure on the quartz buy changing the electrical polarity (force) the speed of sound in the crystal determines the frequency so for about 1000 ft / second if the quartz is about .01' 1/8" thick you get about 100khz applying more pressure increases the amplitude making the frequency lower too much power (force, pressure) you will break the crystalo
