How fast is the speed of sound and is it possible foran object to go faster then the speed of sound?
The speed of sound varies a lot, depending on the material through which it passes, and (to a minor degree) the temperature. In air, the speed of sound is about 330 meters/second, but in solids, the speed of sound can be several times larger than that. And yes, it is possible for an object to go faster than the speed of sound. Certain jet plains do that regularly.
What else can I help you with?
Is there any object that is faster than sound?
Jet planes often fly faster than sound.
Why is it not possible to use sonar to determine the speed of an object travelling faster than the speed of sound?
Sonar uses sound waves to measure distances by calculating the time it takes for the sound waves to bounce back. However, when an object is traveling faster than the speed of sound, the sound waves emitted by the sonar system cannot catch up with the object to bounce back, making it impossible to accurately determine the speed of the object using sonar.
Why is air compressed when an object is traveling faster than the speed of sound?
The supersonic object is hitting air molecules faster than they can get out of the way, so they pile up.
Qhat is the term for the area of wave compressions produced by sounds from an object moving faster than the speed of sound?
sound barrier
Is it possible for humans to travels faster than the speed of sound?
Yes they can do that. But they need a ultrasonic plane.

Can any object move faster than sound?
yes, bot not faster than light
What are sound waves made by an object moving faster than the speed of sound called?
at the speed of sound a shock wave is created; faster than sound the sound is behind you and it is called a sonic boom

What strange things happen to the concord in faster than the sound flight?
A sonic boom occurs by an object traveling through the air faster than the speed of sound.
What is the strange thing that happens to the Concord in faster-than-sound flight?
A sonic boom occurs by an object traveling through the air faster than the speed of sound.
Does sound travel faster through a tree or air?
Air sound travels slower when going through a solid object
What is the term for the area of the wave compression produced by sounds from an object moving faster than the speed of sound?
sound barrier
What is the term for the area of wave compression's produced by sounds from a object moving faster than the speed of sound?
Sound Barrier
What is the term for the area of wave compressions produced by sounds from object moving faster than the speed of sound?
sound barrier
What is the speed of a object that travels faster than sound?
The speed of an object traveling faster than sound is referred to as supersonic. For example, the speed of sound in air is approximately 343 meters per second at room temperature. Therefore, any object traveling faster than 343 m/s would be considered supersonic.
