Sonic booms are reached at 1.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000(recurring)1 x the velocity of sound in the current medium of travel. But please, go on deluding yourself. You're the only one here who actually needs to know this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air over the wing will be faster than air below the wing at mach 1. the actual plane isn't going the speed of sound and a vortex cone is NOT created and thus why a sonic boom is not heard because the airflow is still slower under the plane than above it and hence why the plane must be in the vicinity of Mach 1.2 to be supersonic not transonic. but please carry on telling me im wrong and how you did physics at school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure your figure of 1.2 is higher/lower depending on the way air flows over the plane in question... Anyway, when a sonic boom occurs was never my concern... I was only stating in that thread two things: sonic boom intensity differences at higher than the speed of sound and if those intensities were enough to be a destructive nuisance to people on the ground.

Mythbusters said it doesn't break windows and its no destructive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
