What happens once you break the sound barrier?

When an object breaks the sound barrier, it reaches the speed of sound (about 761 mph or 1,225 km/h in air) and creates a sonic boom. This occurs because the object is traveling faster than the speed at which sound waves can propagate through the medium, resulting in a shockwave.


Is there a sonic boom at Mach 2?

Yes, a sonic boom is created when an object travels at a speed greater than the speed of sound (Mach 1). At Mach 2 (twice the speed of sound), the sonic boom would be more intense and audible due to the faster speed.


How many times has the speed of sound been broken?

The speed of sound has been officially broken multiple times. The most notable instances include Chuck Yeager breaking the sound barrier in 1947 and the ThrustSSC breaking the sound barrier on land in 1997. Additionally, different aircraft and fictional vehicles have broken the speed of sound in various testing scenarios.


What does it mean when an airplane goes through the sound barrier?

Sound Waves move at an elastic speed determined by the medium it's traveling in - for air, it's dependent on the temperature and humidity of the air the sound is traveling in as to how fast sound will travel.Sound moves at different speeds in different mediums - in dry air at 68 degrees F, it travels at about 768mph.The Sound Barrier is considered that speed at which sound is traveling, or Mach 1. When a supersonic aircraft moves past the speed of sound in air, it is said to go through the sound barrier. This is denoted on the ground as a "sonic boom", very common in the 50's and 60's around America, but less so today because of noise considerations in heavily populated areas. The crack of a whip is another example of an object moving through the sound barrier - the "crack" you hear is the tip of the whip breaking the barrier as it moves faster than the sound it made.


What causes sound barrier?

The sound barrier to my knowledge, would be the buildup of energy as a plane or vehicle approaches the Speed of sound. It is also visible when something breaks the sound barrier. Check it out on youtube. It looks like a cloud. So in a way, anyway, it is a barrier, because it is harder to push through than if you were going 200mph.

If you break the sound barrier do you hear the boom again once you slow down?

Yes. If you were to slow to subsonic speeds, the boom can catch up to you, and you would hear it.

How does milo return sound to the silent valley?

Milo magically restores sound to the Silent Valley by playing his flute, which awakens the spirits and beings in the valley. The music brings life and vitality back to the once-silent land, filling it with the sounds of nature and joy.

How do you beatzelda a link to the past?

You have to gather all seven crystals to break the barrier of Gannon's tower in Zelda link to the past. Once the barrier is broken you can reach the final show down with Gannon. You will be able to retrieve the triforce once Gannon is beaten.

Why is the k silent in the word know?

Once upon a time (300 to 500 years ago) it wasn't "silent", the pronunciation changed but the spelling didn't.


How do you get Hercules to break the barrier for you on mythology island?

Hercules will help you after you get all of the sacred items. You'll use Aphrodite's mirror to get him there, because he won't walk.

Can Air Force One Break The Sound Barrier?

Technically speaking yes it can, because the definition of air force one is any air force plane that the president is in so for an example if a president decides to fly in an Air Force fighter jet like the F-15 his call sign would be air force one and it could break the sound barrier, but traditionally speaking the plane he flies daily can not break the sound barrier. The VC-25 (Boeing 747) the President typically flies is not supersonic within its normal flight envelope. That being said, a DC-8 once did break the sound barrier in a shallow dive as part of a controlled test, so it is theoretically possible for commercial airliners to break Mach 1, but strictly speaking a 747 is not a supersonic aircraft.


What is the sound that once you hear it you are on your feet?

There could be several sounds that cause you to get on your feet. It could be music, the sound of someone's voice, a fire alarm, or even someone attempting to break into your home.
