What else can I help you with?
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 there any object that is faster than sound?
Jet planes often fly faster than sound.
What does MACH 1 have to do with sonic booms?
Mach 1 is the speed of sound. When an object travels at Mach 1, it is moving at the speed of sound. Sonic booms occur when an object travels faster than the speed of sound, creating a shockwave as it breaks the sound barrier.
Is light faster than sound or sound is faster than light?
Light is faster than sound. Light travels through empty space at a speed of about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second), whereas sound travels through air at about 1,125 feet per second (343 meters per second).
What rate of speed is necessary to break the sound barrier in mph?
The speed of sound is approximately 767 mph at sea level. To break the sound barrier, an object would need to travel faster than this speed, so it would have to be moving faster than 767 mph.
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 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
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
What is the tern for the area of wave compressions produced by sounds from an object moving faster than the speed of sound?
The term for the area of wave compressions produced by a sound source moving faster than the speed of sound is called a sonic boom. It occurs when an object breaks the sound barrier and creates a sudden increase in pressure waves, resulting in a distinctive noise.
What is the frequency in a sound wave created by a moving object?
The frequency of a sound wave created by a moving object will increase if the object is moving towards the observer and decrease if the object is moving away. This effect is known as the Doppler effect.
Is light faster than sound or is it the other away around?
Light is faster than sound.
Is sound faster than the eyesight?
No, sound is not faster than eyesight. Light travels faster than sound, with light moving at approximately 299,792 kilometers per second in a vacuum, compared to sound traveling at 343 meters per second in the air at room temperature.
Why do you hear a strike half-second after something hits an object?
Because light is faster than sound. We see by light and hear by sound. Light goes approximately 299,792,458 meters per second while sound only goes 340.29 meters per second. Thus the light bouncing off the strike is much faster than the sound that comes from it and so we see faster than we hear.
The Doppler effect indicates that the frequency of energy (sound or light) waves when an object is approaching and when an object is moving away?
The Doppler effect is the change in frequency of waves (such as sound or light) due to the relative motion between the source of the waves and the observer. When an object is approaching, the waves are compressed, causing a higher frequency, resulting in a higher pitch for sound waves or a blue shift for light waves. When an object is moving away, the waves are stretched, causing a lower frequency, resulting in a lower pitch for sound waves or a red shift for light waves.
