Technically, Chuck Yegar was the first person to break the Sound Barrier and lived to tell about it. During WW II fighter pilots during a power dive would sometimes break the sound barrier, but their plane would tear apart from the over pressures on the control surfaces thus crashing the plane & killing the pilots
proved to be untrue. the 1st person to break the sound barrier was george welch in the xp-86 a few days before chuck. the bell x1 record was amended to say "break the sound barrier in level flight. the xp-86 was pretty much i a vertical dive to get there.
Well we found out how knuckles glides at least.. He jumps and pauses the game, jumps and pauses the game, jumps and pauses the game, jumps and pauses the game and it repeats.
So if I had a plane that could move faster than sound and have infinite fuel, I could keep flying around the earth without ever hearing the sound that I would be running away from?
There used to be sonic booms all the time. Back in when I was age 4, 5 and 6 years old we would hear sonic booms almost every day and sometimes several of them a day. They would rattle all the windows and shake the whole house. It wasn't just where I lived in Kentucky because I also heard them at my grandparent's house in Clearwater FL. About 1964 or 65 they made the Air Force quite flying supersonic over most of the USA.
@@raagam7 Two weeks before ppl of Bangalore, India heared a loud boom sound. They were confused about that sound. Later the media announced it is because of sonic boom.
+baileyboy125 actually yes, it does. A whip can even go much faster than the speed of sound. The dino in the video used his tail just as a whip. according to wikipedia the tip of a whip moves up to 30 times the speed of sound
In short: Supersonic planes were too op because you could go too fast and damage your opponents at the same time so the devs banned them. However, that caused many supersonic plane enthusiasts to quit the game so the devs unbanned them over sea.

Aparna anna bone structure that is able to hold the muscle to do that. Also their reptile descendent could have inherited a similar way to scare off predators.
I grew up in the 60's and the 70's and it was normal to hear the sonic booms, pretty much an every day occurrence. I live out in the middle of tumbleweed central, and every once in a while we will hear one. We just heard one the other day and that was drove me to look up the facts on the subject.
Should be noted that diplodocus didn't actually whips it's entire tail so fast, but it had a very long tail so it acted like a whip (the crack of which is a small sonic boom) :)
You can actually see such shockwaves form around the wing at transonic flight. It looks a standing ripple over the wing moving forward with the wing but angled backwards like the Mach cone. 🤩
Cool video! We have seen some of the lighter objects we have shot at supersonic speeds, actually get pushed out of their trajectories by their own shock waves as they passed near larger, stationary objects. Anyone know the term for that?
***** My (scientific) guess is: because the shock waves that the lighter objects create get reflected by the larger, stationary objects which then causes the lighter objects to be pushed out of their trajectory.
+TAOFLEDERMAUS huh... you are the last guy I would have thought I'd randomly run into looking for sonic boom vids. answering your question sort of... its common for long range shooters to have a bullet loose stability (and loss of accuracy) as it slows down from supersonic to transsonic speed, has something to do with the bullet being upset by its own shockwave as the shockwave catches up to it. not sure what the proper terminology is for that... but its a thing. seems to me that if a projectile can be upset by its own shockwave, that the shockwave when distorted/compressed could upset the bullet as well, like your freakazoid slug. I also think a lack of stabilizing spin came into play... since I've shot at game near heavy brush and never had a bullet deflect like that.
2:12 Speed of sound in air is dependent almost solely on temperature. When altitude increases, pressure and density drop simultaneously and cancel out each other.

There were pilots that traveled faster than the speed of sound for Chuck Yeager. It’s just when they did it it was in a nose dive and often ended in death because the shockwave prevented airflow over the control surfaces.
the stabiliser, an all moving tail, is crucial part of a transonic or Super sonic design, however, the US stole it from the UK and hastened the launch of the X-1
Not quite right, we gave them our research data from the Miles M.52 and design drawings, including the flying tail, in exchange for their research data. But the U.S. never held up their end of the deal and gave us nothing in return, then the British government cancelled the M.52 program. The bastards.
The US first shafted allies involved in the Manhattan Project by cutting them out with the Atomic Energy Act of 1946, where they took all of the scientific input from the other developing nations (UK and Canada) opted to not develop further with allies and said f**k off! They then did it AGAIN in 1946-1947 with the Miles M.52 and Bell X-1 research and data exchange and shafted us over by withholding everything they had and pawed over everything we gave them. And finally after that, the UK government pulled the plug which was declared the third blow. Needless to say, we realised the US couldn't be trusted for a long time after that until there was a little thawing in relations.
Fun fact : Speed of Sound in dry air is 343m/s . Speed of Sound in Water is around 1200 m/s. As Sounds travel faster in water , Energy also travels faster hence , The sound Appears Lounder.
+GabrielKirov it uses jet engines which rely on air to generate thrust, so it cannot fly in space. Also the X-43a was Mach 9.6, also using a variant of a jet engine.
TH-cam algorithm again. This video appeared in my recommendations after I watched an anime scene where the protagonist (Shinji Hikari) broke the sound barrier.
First creature to break the sound barrier was the mantis shrimp. It can move it's little plunker faster than sound under water. Needless to say getting plunked buy these little critters can leave a stinging bruise or even cut open finger tips. The sting of the little shockwave really smarts. Much like a water hammering hypodermic tube with a little bit of water in it.
Possibile. But still not convinced. Why did HAL and other sources denied the reason of using their aircraft's. I dnt think govt will allow these aircraft in the highly populated areas. May be its some other country aircraft's ? They dnt want us to panic so they are keeping it as secret. But it's soo mysterious...
I live in the netherlands zeeland and 1 year ago a f 16 maybe broke the sound barrier and caused such a huge booming noise that caused my windows too shake and all
In the 60's there was an air show over the beach near my house in Coney Island. Suddenly there was a jet speeding overhead and before I had a chance to think about why there was no sound *BOOM* Shook me.

Hello! The boom sound is due to an abrupt overpressure and an abrupt underpressure which are caused by the supersonic airplane passing through air very fast. The human ear perceives the differences in pressure as sound. If these pressure differences are abrupt as in the case of sonic booms the sound sounds "sharp" (see the N-wave in the video).
