By falling once
Currently there are no regular vehicles that are faster than the speed of sound, although both the Concorde, and its Russian copy were faster than the speed of sound. There are plenty of military aircraft that are faster than the speed of sound. All spacecraft capable of reaching orbit are faster than the speed of sound. There have been two or three experimental vehicles, "cars", that have gone faster than the speed of sound as well.
faster Light travels faster than sound. Light travels at 300 000 000 m/s whereas sound travels at around 340 m/s at room temperature in air. That's a 880,000x difference!
Sound travels relatively slowly (less than 700 mph). Superman has been estimated to fly at speeds far above this. So, the answer to this question would be yes (hypothetically speaking, since Superman is, after all, a comic book character).
subsonic is lower than 20Hz, and hypersonic(aslo called ultrasonic freq.)is higher than 14000Hz-16000Hz(you cant hear ultrasonic freq.,some people hear 50-14000,some 150-16000, even some like me hear 20-16500)my specter of hearing freq.is 32-16347Hz(I have been on tests)
Breaking the sound barrier was an important milestone because it meant that various technical challenges of flying at high speed had been mastered. The Bell X-1, like other aircraft would buffet greatly, malfunction or explode as they approached the sound barrier. The Bell X-1 was the first known aircraft able to successfully fly in level flight at Mach I which is term for the speed of sound. This achievement is considered by many to be the first step of the Space Age.
Answer A travel with a speed which is more then the speed of sound. Answer In aerodynamics, hypersonic speeds are speeds that are highly supersonic. The term has generally been assumed to refer to speeds of Mach 5 (5 times the speed of sound) and above.
To the best of my knowledge, the sound barrier has never been broken by an automobile.
The current 1 mile land speed record of 763.035 set in 1997, held by ThrustSSC still stands so it has not been broken.
the olympic record has been broken so many times its hard to say
You don't specify what occurrences you are asking about.All passenger jets today travel at less than the speed of sound, and most military jets also fly at less than the speed of sound.There have been passenger jets run by Russia and by Concorde that traveled at greater than the speed of sound, but none are currently operating.Whenever any jet or vehicle breaks the sound barrier a sonic boom is generated. I believe there is some military technology to reduce the boom, but it does still occur.
In salt water that is free of air bubbles or suspended sediment, sound travels at about 1560 m/s. The speed of sound in seawater depends on pressure (hence depth), temperature (a change of 1 °C ~ 4 m/s),and empirical equations have been derived to accurately calculate sound speed from these variables. In pure water the speed of sound is less than in ocean water.
Different fighter planes have different capabilities, but somewhere between Mach 1 (the speed of sound) and Mach 3 (three times the speed of sound) has been the general norm for fighter planes in the last five decades. Fighter-bombers are capable of supersonic speeds above Mach 1, but fighter-interceptors can do about Mach 2.5.
Yes, there have been several F1 drivers who have broken bones during their careers. Broken bones are not uncommon in high-speed crashes that can occur in Formula 1 racing. Drivers have suffered broken legs, arms, wrists, and other bones as a result of accidents on the track.
By whom has the glass been broken?
Lightning travels approximately at 60,000 miles a second (96,560 kps), while sound travels at a pokey one-fifth of a mile per second (20 kps). I think you might have actually been referring to light, not lightning, which travels at 186,411 miles per second (300,000 kps). In other words, light travels almost a million times faster than sound.

Because something is broken, or your idle speed has been set WAY to high. Try to fix this soon.
