According to me, the only way to hear a sonic boom is to be there in real life. Sound cannot be faster than sound made by a sonic boom. so it would sound very different in real life. Even a HD camera cannot play the sounds of a sonic boom. unless it can make sounds faster than the speed of sound. which is impossible because thw microphone makes the sonic boom slower
+Sonic The Hedgehog incorrect, when you say that it make the sonic boom slower, it is called sound lag, it happens on any type of jet and a camera does not affect the sonic boom whatsoever
Why would people dislike the video? It's in the title what the video is about. If you dont like sonic booms dont click on the video and dont watch it duh.
Most of them are actually. You can notice that the sound comes much later after the plane has passed. That's what bascially supersonic means. Faster than sound.
being at some distance from the plane the sound will be delayed compared to the image, no matter the speed. At a significant part of the speed of sound the plane will move significantly during that delay, it doesn't have to exceed the speed of sound for the delay effect to be clear. I do believe some are some are supersonic based on the sound, the ones where the noise starts with a boom. If it simply sounds like a jet engine coming closer then it is subsonic. If it's going at supersonic speed there WILL be a boom.
RHawkeyed From what I know and read "if the plane is traveling at the supersonic speeds, a pressure wave is produced in the shape of the cone whose vertex is at the nose of the plane, and whose base is behind the plane." You can see that effect in most of these and you can clearly hear the boom
As I wrote, the ones with a distinct boom are supersonic (assuming unaltered recording of course :). You cannot avoid the boom at supersonic, but you CAN have the cloud at SUBsonic speed. The cloud is simply water vapour condensing due to change in pressure, it does not need supersonic speed to occur. Of course it is more likely at higher pressure (result of higher speed) and hence it has become associated with supersonic speed, but it really does not need to be supersonic. twistedsifter.com/2012/12/airplane-vapor-cone-of-condensation/
I know, a lot of people like to say they hate humans but how? We have done incredible things, we looked at the set rules of nature, and told it fuck you we're doing our own thing.
Far more impressive are the vast array of RU-vid experts sticking their oars in on the comments section. Some of them have smashed the bullshit barrier.
You are wrong, sir, allow me to explain why. You see, the squared quantum physics plus psychology tells us we need correlations to abide the physics of earth. Now then, adhering to Darwinism, we now know that we need microbiology to morph and bind atoms together. Hence, we know compute the variation of earth's orbit plus the temperature of space and we know know why it is hot. Furthermore, taking all the latter into consideration, it becomes evident why that which was in the video is a genuine speed of light derp. In addition, these are all reasons why you are wrong. -Junior B. _RU-vid expert: AA in Cosmetology from the University of Phoenix._
The immense power of these planes are absolutely astonishing. I live in Leeds (UK) and we've just had 2 fly over who were authorized to break the sound barrier. When they flew over my house shook, we thought the windows were going to come through and every house and car alarm on the street went off. Up until i found out that it was the planes we all thought something awful had happened nearby. Just goes to show that we're in good hands with such powerful machines keeping us safe.
Oh hell it was getting on a bit, it was dark outside so it must have been about 8 or so? When they first flew over and broke the sound barrier we thought there had been an explosion. I ran to the cupboard to grab my tins of soup because I thought the house was going to fall down and we'd need long lasting food. I went into zombie apocalypse mode haha. Just goes to show just how frighteningly powerful these planes are!
Just because these jets have a shock cone, doesn't mean they are breaking the sound barrier. It just means they are moving at high speed through moist air.
Not entirely the cone that comes behind the plane is sound waves being compressed and actually touching each other, how ever they they have to stay faster that 340. M/s to stay ahead of the speed of sound also the cone that is created is called "Mach one" which is as I said 340 m/s... But the part you said is also right because of air and moisture :)
in the 60s, i heard the sonic booms often. usually made me jump. i remember one time, many people got broken windows. soon after that, i never heard them anymore. i lived in Kalamazoo Michigan then.
Is there any place you can go to witness this happening? It seems that a lot of those were seen from onboard an aircraft carrier, but I'm wondering if there is a place for spectators to see it.
+DtRockstar1 There are a few test ranges where you can get close enough to get lucky (one the call coyote or something)although here in SNJ we hear them every once in a while as they have a test track where they fly over the Atlantic and at times you'll hear them on land.They arent that loud on land here but you hear the boom and feel the windows shake even though its quite far.We actually had about 7-8 of them the other day but if you want to get real close you can "go fishing"out near the test track off the coast here.
np,it is definitely a cool experience to witness one.I think the place out west is called coyote range or something(there is a YT vid from there) but you could probably find more info over at airliners.net (I think) it's a plane spotting and pilots forum.They dont exactly advertise this stuff but if you dig the info is out there.
Most of these are sub sonic. If there's no crack/boom they aren't flying faster than the speed of sound. The water vapor condensing into various shapes and patterns can and do happen below the speed of sound and are no indication of being above the sound barrier.
Because light is faster than sound. About 340 meters results in about a second of lag. It simply has to move fast so it has moved significantly before you hear the sound, not necessarily faster than sound.
Not necessarily accurate. A shock wave is a very abrupt disturbance in a medium. The jets shown here create the shock waves by making the sound waves merge together. Since it's traveling at the speed of sound, each individual sound wave has no time to get out of the way before the next wave comes. The waves compound on top of each other to create one giant shock wave. If you could listen to this wave, what you would hear is called a sonic boom.
most of the hornet passes were subsonic, the F18 dosen't have enough smash at low altitude to reliably fly supersonic in all atmospheric conditions. in warm,dry air it can. also, the vapor cone isnt an indicator that the plane is flying supersonic.
00:30 is the only jet that truly broke the sound barrier. You can tell because it's the only one that had two huge sonic booms. The others only had one boom.
+Patrick Star They all broke the sound barrier. There are always two booms - if you only hear one, it's because one was either not loud enough or they are too close together to distinguish between them or a combination of the two. In fact, the FASTER it's moving, the less likely you will hear two distinct booms. The reason you hear a boom is from the pressure difference. There is one at the front of the plane and another at the back, so the time between booms is literally the time it takes a plane to fly its own length. So, the faster it's going, the closer together the booms are - so it's literally the opposite of what you are saying. The plane where you hear two distinct booms is the slowest plane of the bunch - all of which are faster than the speed of sound.
It happens though. Not sure if it was an accident or not, but it happened when I was in high school. It scared the whole town. Broke a lot of people's windows out. What a sound though. Holy hell.
Would these kinds of demos be ever allowed here in the UK with all our ridiculous Health and safety regulations? Blessed are they who live in the USA, for they shall enjoy all the fruits of modern aircraft excitement. Those planes (and those sounds) are awesome. Especially these ones 0:16, 0:28, 2:02, 2:55, 3:02
If it hasnt been said already below - breaking the sound barrier is DIFFERENT to the Vapor cone seen. The vapor cone is all about the heat and moisture ( the low level near water have bigger cones.
So awesome... I'll never forget one time at an air show at Edwards AFB (or was it ARB, whatever) a stealth fighter went super sonic and at the exact moment I heard the boom, I had turned my head and was looking down the barrel of a tank cannon. Now THAT was freaky!
The first few at the beginning are busting mach. Then it happens again at 2:04 and more often after that. Sometimes it is hard for a double mach jet to break mach next to sea level in certain weather conditions. A lot of these are trans sonic flybys.
Brian Patton I'm surprised you've only now asked... I supposed it's best that a fan of the show explains this rather than a misinformed hater like the first person who replied. Anyway, many people with pony profile pics are "bronies," which refers to adult or otherwise older fans of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. Bro+pony=brony. Though some bronies are unhealthily obsessed and literally pervert the show, that is only a small amount of the fanbase. They are most of the reason why bronies tend to get hated on, along with the fact that haters like to think that people who make a small reference to the show, make a crossover video mixing the show with something else, or have a pony profile pic are doing nothing but shoving the show in people's faces. That could not be further from the truth. Most bronies, like myself, just love the show and that's all there is to it.
It's shame none of these clips capture the true sensation of a sonic boom. I grew up hearing sonic booms on a regular basis (Carswell AFB in Ft. Worth, TX) and the depth of the bass and the overall blast sensation is pretty intense, especially when you're playing in your front yard and not expecting it. Evidently, the folks at Carswell were asked to do these tests over nearby Lake Worth or at higher altitudes as many residents near the base were complaining of cracked windows and items falling from indoor shelves. But I always loved them! You're going along and playing with your POW!!!, and a smile comes to your shocked face as you say "Wow!".
+Thatweirdbritishgirl xox Collab channel I'm in South Yorkshire and didn't hear anything! Loads of people on Facebook are talking about it though!! What did it sound like? Was it like an explosion??
And to think that Concorde could fly past at almost twice the speed you see these jets pass while the passengers were sipping Champagne and eating Caviar! Mind blowing!
Concords would slow to subsonic as they approached each continent and their destination. One of the reasons they were limited to overseas routes. land bases sonic booms are a liability and unpopular.
This is how fast Sonic moves? I guess you have to be there in person, cuz it looks slow on camera! And I know he's faster than that! Unless they incorrectly potray his speed...
***** well he can and he does all the time and suffers none of that. No one knows how fast he can go but it's faster then the speed of sound , so you're taking crap. And lets not try to play the logic card pal cos that card was tossed out of the window when a hedgehog started taking, so why don't you just get back to you're dull life Man I can't stand guys like you.
My husband is retired Air Force and we got stationed on an Air Force base that had fighter jets back in 1990. One afternoon they broke the sound barrier and it sounded like the sky broke open. The sonic boom lasted for a few seconds. When I looked out our living room window there were 4 or 5 fighter jets flying in formation overhead. It was kind of cool. There was no air show going on, it was just a basic day.
2:52 i know this sound. in the 80`s-90´s lived near british airbase. sometimes they break the sound barrier..... it is sooooo loud, that the glasses in cabinet rattle. nice video !!
Devin Kroupa *you're The contraction "you're" is created when the writer combines the two english words "you" and "are." The letter "a" is removed, creating an implicit meaning and shortening the two words to a single, 5-letter phrase. He did not own "a dumbass." It was not his a dumbass. "Your" indicates ownership. Ok…grammar lesson over…have a nice day. And btw…HE'S right…the speed of sound is the maximum velocity at which sound can travel…it's kind of mind-blowing.
How is one jet going to do any damage to our atmosphere when there are millions of cars just in 1 city. Btw thats why we have plants they take in the CO2, 2nd grade science buddy.
+ FreakofFury Bo podczas łamania bariery dźwięku nic się nie dzieje. Tytuł jest błędny. Te samoloty nie lecą w momencie przekraczania bariery dźwięku, tylko lecą z tą prędkością jakiś czas. Nie istnieje takie zjawisko jak "Sonic Boom" jako jednorazowe zdarzenie. Samolot który leci ponaddźwiękowo leci równo z dźwiękiem który sam wytwarza ( zawirowania powietrza, praca silnika). W momencie gdy samolot który leci już od 5 min z predkoscią dźwięku i mija nas, słyszymy wybuch, co jest w rzeczywistości skompresowanymi w jednym momencie dźwiękami silnika i powietrza wytwarzanego przez całe 5 min lotu.
@@dubzeefps4189 well if youre looking for something, find a video claiming to provide you with what youre looking for and then it gives you something else i can see why you wouldnt be happy..
Pretty sure breaking the sound barrier doesn't cause enough decibel's to rupture an eardrum. If those aren't sonic booms in the video, then what are they? It would be unpleasant to the ears, sure. But to rupture an eardrum? Nah
Growing up in North St. Louis county, Missouri we were just a few miles northeast of Boeing. Used to be McDonnell Douglas. We heard sonic booms almost every day. I thought everybody could hear them and knew what they were. It was years later before I saw one. Pretty cool stuff
