Conventional jet liners in which air travel occurs max out at about 400 to 500 miles per hour, where the X-43 unmanned military plane, the US claims, has topped Mach 9.6, or over 7,000 mph.

Why are planes fast?

There are 2 main reasons why planes are fast. First they have extremely powerful engines. Commercial airliners have engines that produce 70,000-90,000 lbs of thrust. Secondly, airplanes are very aerodynamic ( a measurement of how much force the air puts on an object). The more streamlined a plane is, the less HP is required to go the same speed. To look at it a different way, a more streamlined airplane can go faster with the same power.

Can their be a roller coaster that goes 1000mph and people can live because if they desighn planes they will go that fast so they should make roller coasters go that fast or not?

The answer is no. Planes have technology that depressurizes the cabin. If a person was to travel 1000 mph outside, they wouldn't be able to breathe due to the suction (vacuum) created by the motion. The lack of air would cause asphyxiation. This means they would suffocate to death.
