What else can I help you with?
Is there any object that is faster than sound?
Jet planes often fly faster than sound.
Is it true that the planes that fly faster than the speed of sound can create a sonic boom?
Yes, it is true that planes flying faster than the speed of sound can create a sonic boom. When an aircraft exceeds the speed of sound, it compresses air in front of it, generating shock waves that result in a loud noise known as a sonic boom. This phenomenon occurs because the aircraft breaks through the sound barrier, causing a sudden change in pressure. Sonic booms can be heard on the ground as a loud, thunder-like sound.
Can you travel faster than the speed of sound?
Yes, many but mostly military. The Concorde passenger plane even flew above the speed of sound. Chuck Yeager is the first person credited with flying faster than the speed of sound in 1947. A few kinds of airplanes travel faster than sound, such as the Concorde SST and supersonic fighter jets.
What do you call an aeroplane that travels faster than the speed of sound?
With modern technology, there are many planes that can travel faster than the speed of sound, including many fighter planes and a few airliners.Any aircraft that flies faster than 1 Mach is faster than the speed of sound.Almost all modern day fighters travel at speeds in excess of the speed of sound. That includes the Russian MIGS from mig17 on, French Mirage, All US fighters.The planes which can fly at the speed of sound are SR-71, Mig-25, F-16, F-18, F-22, Sukhoi Su-47 and many others.
What best describes a flight that is approaching speed of sound?
We call them ultra sonic planes. There is a sonic boom it is traveling when this speed.
Why can the speed of sound not be broken?
It is not true that the speed of sound cannot be broken. In fact almost all fighter jet planes fly faster than the speed of sound.Its the speed of LIGHT that cannot be broken.
What are the top speeds for airplanes?
Every airplane has its own speed limits. Most small and commercial planes fly below Mach (the speed of sound). Military fighters and some other planes, like Concorde, fly above Mach, or supersonically.
Can hypersonic aircraft fly faster than bullets?
Bullets flies at the top speed of Mach 3 but almost Mach 4. There are some planes that can fly much faster than bullets but bullets used to fly faster than most planes(aircraft). Hypersonic aircraft can fly up to Mach 9. So yes, hypersonic aircraft can fly much faster than bullets. If these hypersonic planes can fly faster than bullets, they can fly alot faster than missiles. Missiles also flies around Mach 3 but hypersonic planes don't fly at that kind of speed. The top speed that hypersonic planes is nearly Mach 10(almost 10 times faster than the speed of sound).
Some aircraft can fly faster than the speed of sound what is such speed called?
They are called Supersonic aircraft. Some aircraft can only do that. Some planes have reached even Hypersonic speeds.
What speed do planes fly?
Small planes fly at 100 to 200 mph. Airliners fly around 350 to 500 mph. Jet fighters fly faster.
Can airplanes fly in the stratoshpere?
Most passenger airplanes fly in the stratosphere. Planes like Cessna fly near the troposphere. It depends on the size and sound of the planes.
Which planes now break the sound barrier and how fast they fly?
Only jet fighter planes break sound barrier now.
How can planes fly 596 mph when going to Europe and not break the sound barrier?
Because breaking the sound barrier requires exceeding the speed of sound. The speed of sound is approximately 761 miles per hour at seal level at an the air temperature of 59 degrees Fahrenheit.
Which engine used in airplane?
Ordinary jet engines are used on aircrafts. But some planes require turbojet engines. These planes fly at more than the speed of sound. There are other type of airplane types too.
How do high speed fighter planes fly without aerofoil shaped wings?
High-speed fighter planes have aerofoil-shaped wings.
How would people travel at the speed of sound?
We can use ultrasonic planes. They can travel with that speed.
Is there any object that is faster than sound?
Jet planes often fly faster than sound.
