He has to travel at more than 760mph.
"Breaking the sound barrier" means that you go faster than the speed of sound. The speed of sound varies depending on various circumstances; in air, it is typically about 340 meters per second.
The speed of the wind is 28 mph. To find the speed of the plane with no wind, we would simply subtract the wind speed (28 mph) from the speed of the plane flying with the wind (366 mph) or add the wind speed to the speed of the plane flying into the wind (310 mph), resulting in 338 mph for the speed of the plane with no wind.
Light travels at 186,000 miles per second, which means you have to travel faster than that to break the light barrier. This feat is technically "impossible", since the faster you move, the more mass you have and the more mass you have, the more energy is required to move you, and by the time you reach the speed of light, you will need to have infinite energy. This doesn't apply to light particles, since they have no mass.
To break the sound barrier you have to travel than the speed of sound. The speed of sound in air actually varies with temperature. When representing air as an ideal gas the speed of sound can be represented as c = square root(γRT) where γ = specific heat ratio = 1.4 R = specific gas constant = 287 T = Temperature in Kelvin. Using this equation the speed of sound in dry air at: -100 degrees Celsius is 264 metres per second 0 degrees Celsius is 343 metres per second 100 degrees Celsius is 287 metres per second.
Accelerration is the change of speed faster/slower.
To break the sound barrier in the Earth's atmosphere, an object must travel at a speed of around 767 mph (1,235 km/h) at sea level. This speed is known as the speed of sound, or Mach 1.
Of course. As his name suggests Sonic moves very fast, faster than the speed of sound and is able to break the sound barrier.
Only jet fighter planes break sound barrier now.
Some rocket planes can go as fast as six times the speed of sound. Most military fighter planes do not go faster than twice the speed of sound, and the typical civilian passenger/transport plane goes slower than the sound barrier.
It's around 1,125 FPS, BUT you really don't want to break the Sound Barrier. See the link below.
He broke the sound barrier October 14, 1947.
The Thrust SSC reached a top speed of 761 miles per hour! It was the first car in the world to break the sound barrier (750 miles per hour).
"Breaking the sound barrier" means that you go faster than the speed of sound. The speed of sound varies depending on various circumstances; in air, it is typically about 340 meters per second.
To break the sound barrier (Mach 1), you need to travel at a speed of approximately 767 miles per hour (1,234 kilometers per hour) at sea level. The exact speed can vary depending on factors such as air temperature and pressure.
At sea level it needs to travel at 340m/s.
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.
Yes. A plane goes very fast when taking off. For example, A Boeing's takeoff speed is 280 kph.
