What is the velocity of sound at sea?
Do you mean speed of sound at sea level? Scroll down to related links and look at "Speed of sound - temperature matters, not air pressure".
Can commercial airplanes break the sound barrier?
The Concorde was a supersonic commercial airliner. However, due to flight accidents the Concorde is no longer in service. The typical cruise speed for a commercial jet is about 0.8 Mach. Of course, almost any plane with sufficient engines and built for speed can dive down and break the sound barrier---but it may not recover from this.
Do bullets break the sound barrier?
YesThe sound barrier is roughly 1100fps depending on altitude. A lot of gun rounds are over the 1100fps threshold. Some pistol rounds are under this velocity. It is questionable if it creates a sonic boom, but the speed of sound is definitely reached and there are rounds that reach speeds of over 4000fps.
Which travel faster than light or sound waves?
Which of them travel faster - light or sound waves? Light waves travel in vacuum with the speed of light c = 299792458 m/s or 983571056 ft/s. Sound waves travel at 20°C (68°F) with the speed of sound c = 343 m/s or 1125.33 ft/s. So light travels 874,030 times faster than sound. Don't forget that sound needs necessarily air as a medium. Light does not need a medium; vacuum is O
How fast was Andy green going when he got the land speed record?
Andy first broke the record on Sept. 25, 1997 at a speed of 714.144. He also went on to be the first man to break the sound barrier at a speed of 763.035 mph on Oct. 15 of the same year.
Who first broke the sound of speed?
Chuck Yeager.. I don't think anyone has yet to break the speed of sound on the ground, I could be wrong, anyone?
Could you run at the speed of sound?
Yes you can change the speed of sound. IF you change the medium the speed changes. IF you change the density of the medium it changes. IF you change the temperature of the medium the speed changes.
What did Andy Green do?
He broke the land speed record
Who broke the speed of sound in a jet?
We call them sonic booms. There are jets can fly faster than sound speed.

What was first man made object to move faster than sound?
The first man-made object to move faster than the speed of sound was the Bell X-1 aircraft, piloted by Chuck Yeager on October 14, 1947. It broke the sound barrier and reached a speed of Mach 1.06.
What does broke a speed record mean?
"Broke a speed record" means that a person or vehicle has achieved a faster speed in a particular activity or event than any previous recorded instance. This can apply to various contexts, such as race cars, athletes, or machines like aircraft or boats.
