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 is the sound barrier?
The sound barrier is the point at which an object traveling through air reaches the speed of sound, where it meets increasing resistance, often resulting in a sonic boom. Breaking the sound barrier was a significant milestone in aviation history, showing the ability to fly faster than the speed of sound.
Does a sonic boom is due to shock wave that is produced when the sound barrier is broken?
Yes when something moves fatser than the speed of sound (or breaks the sound barrier) it makes a shock wave which unleashes an enormous amount of energy which comes in the form of a sonic boom. Hope this helps! :D
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.
How do you break a sound barrier?
Breaking the sound barrier occurs when an object travels faster than the speed of sound, creating a shockwave. To accomplish this, an object needs to generate enough thrust and acceleration to overcome aerodynamic drag and reach supersonic speeds. Aircraft and some vehicles can be designed to break the sound barrier with specialized engineering and propulsion systems.
Can you break the sound barrier on fs2004?
Yes, depending on which aircraft you have but there is no indication that you have broken the sound barrier unfortunately.
What was the first car to break the sound barrier?
To the best of my knowledge, the sound barrier has never been broken by an automobile.
How can the sound barrier be broken without a plane?
With a whip...
What happens when a sound barrier is broken?
Well it creates a sonic boom.
What kinds vehicles have broken the sound barrier and in what years?
car nd plane
What is the speed that the sound barrier can be broken at?
Approximately 720 miles per hour
Who went faster then the speed of sound in a car?
I don't believe anyone has broken the sound barrier on land yet.
What date did Chuck Yeager fly at the speed of sound?
The sound barrier was first broken on October 14th, 1947.
What happens when Concorde plane flies faster than speed of sound?
its simple the sound barrier is broken :D
How many times has the speed of sound been broken?

Additionally, different aircraft and fictional vehicles have broken the speed of sound in various testing scenarios.
Has anyone ever crossed the sound barrier?
On foot? No. But the sound barrier has been passed in land and air vehicles. The sound barrier is also known as Mach 1, so anytime you hear mention of a vehicle travelling at a speed greater than or equal to Mach 1, or travelling at "supersonic" speeds, it's passed the sound barrier.
When the sound barrier is broken why would you hear 2 booms and why would you hear 1 boom?
1 boom
