How many mph do you have to go to break the sound barrier?
Mach 1 is the speed at which you break the sound barrier. The speed of sound, or Mach 1, at sea level and under "standard condition" is:1,116.4 ft/s340.3 m/s761.2 mph1,225.1 km/h
Do whips break the sound barrier?
Yes, whips can break the sound barrier when they are cracked. The cracking sound is actually a small sonic boom created by the tip of the whip moving faster than the speed of sound.
Sound made by a snap of a whip?
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
What kind of noise does the sun make?
The sun is situated in outer space, which is a vacuum. Sound does not travel through a vacuum, so from where we sit, the sun is silent. It makes no noise. If you (impossibly) were sitting on the sun, it would be very noisy indeed, with enormous pressures and continual explosions like Hydrogen bombs. Your ears would be destroyed in microseconds by the intensity of the noise. The sun does make a lot of a different kind of noise. This is electronic noise. The sun makes noise across the whole radio frequency spectrum, which can be picked up on radios.
Does the space shuttle break the sound barrier on take off?
Yes, the space shuttle breaks the sound barrier during takeoff. The shuttle reaches speeds of over 1,000 miles per hour while climbing through the Earth's atmosphere, surpassing the speed of sound (around 767 miles per hour at sea level).
What makes the tip of a whip make a crackling noise?
The cracking noise is the tip of the whip breaking the sound barrier
Is it silent once you break the sound barrier?
No, breaking the sound barrier creates a sonic boom, which is a loud noise caused by the shock waves generated as an object travels faster than the speed of sound.
What does the sonic boom have to do with breaking the sound barrier?
The sonic boom occurs when an object travels through the air faster than the speed of sound, creating a shock wave. This shock wave produces a loud noise that is heard as a boom. So, breaking the sound barrier means exceeding the speed of sound, leading to the creation of a sonic boom.
Can a Super Comanche be silenced?
Like any other 44 magnum revolver- no. Gas leak at the cylinder gap creates a great deal of noise, and the supersonic bullet makes noise by breaking the sound barrier.
When was the first breaking of the sound barrier?
The first breaking of the sound barrier was during World War 2. One can find more information from Wikipedia. By 1950s, new aircraft broke the sound barrier.
Who won the Oscar for Sound in 1952?
Breaking the Sound Barrier won the Oscar for Sound in 1952.
What is the purpose of the sound barrier cone in relation to controlling noise pollution?
The purpose of the sound barrier cone is to help reduce noise pollution by directing and absorbing sound waves, preventing them from spreading and causing disturbance to surrounding areas.
What did Chuck Yeager become famous?
by breaking the sound barrier in a plane
The first flight faster than the speed of sound was called?
It was referred to as breaking the sound barrier.
What are the release dates for Modern Marvels - 1994 Breaking the Sound Barrier 9-30?
Modern Marvels - 1994 Breaking the Sound Barrier 9-30 was released on: USA: 16 July 2003
Would the pilot of an airplane breaking the sound barrier hear a sonic boom?
No, the pilot of an aircraft breaking the sound barrier would not hear the sonic boom because the aircraft is traveling at the same speed as the sound waves it creates. The sonic boom is heard on the ground as the aircraft passes overhead.
What happen when the aeroplane go faster than the speed of the sound?
When an airplane goes faster than the speed of sound, it reaches the speed of sound barrier, called Mach 1. This can create a sonic boom, which is a loud noise caused by shock waves produced by the plane breaking the sound barrier. The aircraft is said to be supersonic when flying faster than the speed of sound.
