Yes, there are several military aircraft that can go 2x, 3x or even 4x the speed of sound such as the SR-71 Blackbird.
the area a lot of planes capable of that
When an airplane goes faster than the speed of sound, it reaches the speed of sound barrier, called Mach 1. This can create a sonic boom, which is a loud noise caused by shock waves produced by the plane breaking the sound barrier. The aircraft is said to be supersonic when flying faster than the speed of sound.
Sound travels faster in iron. Usually sound travels faster in media with higher density. Also presence of lattice makes difference too.
Sound travels at different speeds in different mediums, but it generally goes faster in solids and liquids than in gases. This means that sound can travel faster and more efficiently in some mediums compared to others.
An airplane can move faster by increasing the power from its engines, adjusting its angle of attack to reduce air resistance, and by flying at a higher altitude where the air is thinner and provides less drag. Upgrading to more aerodynamic designs and reducing the weight of the aircraft can also help it move faster.
One should note that air is not pure Oxygen, rather it is about 21% oxygen, with most of the remainder being Nitrogen (and less than .04% CO2) According to Wikipedia: The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s The speed of sound in water is 1,482 m/s So, sound travels faster through water than air.
Only if it's traveling at less than the speed of sound
When an airplane goes faster than the speed of sound, it reaches the speed of sound barrier, called Mach 1. This can create a sonic boom, which is a loud noise caused by shock waves produced by the plane breaking the sound barrier. The aircraft is said to be supersonic when flying faster than the speed of sound.
steel sound waves always go faster in solids
yes
blackbird, the fastest airplane ever made. it can go faster than the speed of sound !
Any modern jet fighter can go past the speed of sound.
There was not a special name for the first flight that went faster than the speed of sound. However, when a plane does go faster than sound, it said to be traveling at supersonic speeds.
sound travels at a certain speed but jets go faster than sound waves
For you kids, thinking Sonic is faster, well, you're outdone. Mario is faster than Sonic. Bullet Bills go FASTER than sound, but are slowed down in the games so you can actually know what's going on, and if Sonic goes at the speed of sound, Mario must be faster than sound because he can stomp Bullets faster than Sound, and thus Sonic is slower.
Yes, often. Fighter jets go faster than sound.
You get where you want to go faster
He was the first man to go faster than the speed of sound.
