Sound waves are like ripples in a pond that radiate around the object. An aeroplane travelling at sub-sonic speed will be travelling behind the sound that it has emitted. When the aeroplane reaches the exact speed of sound, the sound it is producing will accompany it on its journey.
its simple the sound barrier is broken :D
The passenger airplane that flies faster than the speed of sound is called the Concorde.
In faster-than-sound flight, a plane can experience a shockwave known as a sonic boom. This is caused when the plane reaches and exceeds the speed of sound, resulting in a sudden, loud noise like a thunderclap. It is a strange phenomenon that can be disruptive and alarming for those on the ground.
The Concorde's cruising speed was over twice the speed of sound, around Mach 2 (more than 1,300 mph). The speed of sound at sea level is approximately 761 mph, so the Concorde flew significantly faster than the speed of sound.
As an aircraft reaches the speed of sound, shock waves build up, creating increase in drag, loss of lift, and loss of control and a sonic explosion is heard.
When the Concorde flies faster than sound, it experiences a shockwave known as a sonic boom. This causes a loud and distinctive noise to be heard on the ground as the aircraft passes overhead. The sonic boom is caused by the rapid displacement of air molecules as the aircraft exceeds the speed of sound.

No, but the CONCORDE flies faster than sound
The passenger airplane that flies faster than the speed of sound is called the Concorde.
Because Concorde travelled faster than the speed of sound!
A sonic boom occurs by an object traveling through the air faster than the speed of sound.
In current use - no one. But the Concorde and its Russian counterpart were faster than the speed of sound.

Concorde, which is now retired, was the only commercial airliner that flew faster than the speed of sound.
