A sonic boom occurs when an object travels at or above the speed of sound (around 767 mph or 1,235 km/h). The exact speed can vary slightly depending on factors like air temperature and pressure.

Why is it that a subsonic aircraft cannot produce a sonic boom?

A subsonic aircraft flies below the speed of sound, so it does not break the sound barrier. A sonic boom is created when an object travels at or above the speed of sound, causing a buildup and release of pressure waves that result in a loud noise. Since a subsonic aircraft does not exceed the speed of sound, it does not generate a sonic boom.


What has to happen for a sonic boom to occur?

for a sonic boom to occur, the object (usually a airplane)must travel supersonic or faster than the speed of sound(about 340 meters per second). The sonic boom continues as long as the object is supersonic. More info see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_boom.
