    the actual speed of sound depends on the medium through which it travels.
    since water is much denser than air, and it is very difficult to compress, the speed of sound is about 4 times faster in water, compared to atmospheric air.
    which makes that little shrimp even more impressive.

      So they'd be able to break the Atmospheric Light Barrier by just going almost Four times faster, whatever that is will be great to help people in FTL travel.

    If a sonic boom is a continuous sound, and the pilot can’t hear it because they’re traveling in front of the Mach cone, doesn’t that mean that once the pilot slows down they’ll hear it?

    • @matthewvaughan8192
      @matthewvaughan8192 Před 4 lety +1

      I could be wrong, but it's impossible, because the sonic boom itself isn't a continuous sound. Sound is, but not the boom. The boom is more like a cone trailing the pilot in the opposing direction. It only forms behind the pilot, because that's the only area where the waves can compress enough to form a boom. So, if you imagine the cone of boom following the pilot, as soon as he slows down below Mach one, the cone would start to disappear in his tracks, if that makes sense? It would never catch him up because it's travelling in the opposite direction. The sound waves that ARE following him, can never compress enough to form a boom. This video provides a much clearer explanations and will help envision it:

    Nice and clear explanation. Allow me to finetune some airodynamic aspects.Speed of sound at sealevel is indeed 340 m/s, but this only true for an infinite small disturbance in the air. It is used for calcultations, but actual sound usually goes faster. How much faster depend on how loud (the pressure difference over the sound wave) the disturbance actually is. In plain terms: loud noise travels faster than weak noise. To use the example of the video, the sonic boom (pressure wave) moves at the same forward speed as the plane that produces it. Plane goes mach 1.5, the sonic boom moves at mach 1.5. That is why a plane does not goes faster as the sound it produces, it actually accumulates the pressure wave in front of the plane and drags it along at the same speed.

      He asked wether passangers on an Aircraft over Mach 1 can hear each other or not. I think I agree with L4RZ, but I'm not sure myself. I guess if the medium (air) travels at high speed, the speed of created sound increases whilst in that medium. Otherwise Astronauts wouldn't be able to communicate at all, right?

    This answered a life long question and argument in my family thank you!!! I’ve always told my family that there is no way a sonic boom only happens at the point of which the jet passes the speed of sound, rather the sound boom rides behind the jet until it slows below the speed. Everyone said I was wrong. And I knew I had to be right bc the jet is still ahead of the sound the whole time. How could it be one big boom and than nothing!?? No. The boom isn’t one boom it’s a loud roar following the jet. And when it hits you on the ground in sound like one boom. It’s like if you run as fast as the jet without creating your own boom. You could run in the boom sound and it would be constant. Not a boom at that point but just a loud constant roar. You can hear this roar for more than the boom. Have you ever thought a get engine was loud as thunder when it was way off in the distance? That’s not the engine making that loud roar. That’s the sound wave overlap you’re hear. When a jet is flying under the speed of sound way off like that, you don’t even hear it. I know you’ve seen a jet and heard nothing? You’re like wow that crazy i can’t hear the engine. Well it was never the engine you were hearing. If you only hear the engine the sound wouldn’t make it to you. And if you was close enough to hear it. It would sound like air spraying. Not thunder

    When the pistol shrimp claps its pincers, a tiny air bubble is created in front of the pincer. Then, the entire weight of the ocean above it instantly moves to fill in the air bubble, causing rapid pressure change, and a temperature hotter than the surface of the sun. It is so rapid and short lived, however, that it doesn't boil all the water around it. I think there is a video of it on youtube.

    Good video, I think it's great that you can talk about so many different things; however it is also a myth that there is a "sound barrier", and that aircraft have to "break it" to go faster than sound. In reality a shock wave develops as you say, which can be heard as a boom but it's not breaking through any sort of barrier. Air flow over surfaces changes as the speed of sound is matched or exceeded, so not every plane could physically travel so fast without dropping out of the sky.

    Great video, and excellent explanation. One suggestion - you give the speed of sound at Sea Level as a constant. But the speed of sound actually changes daily at Sea Level depending on the air temperature. In an ideal gas, the speed of sound is directly dependent on the temperature alone. Specifically, it varies in direct proportion to the square root of the absolute temperature.
    One moment you can be breaking the sound barrier, and the next minute you may not be - if the air temperature changed.
    Anyhow, I really liked and appreciated your high quality explanation of this whole concept of the sonic boom.

    Good video but a couple of corrections:

    Sound waves don't (exactly) have crests and troughs, they're longitudinal waves which have a series of compressions and rarefactions.

    4:35 isn't the overlapping crests that create the sonic boom or shock wave as this is also what we called the resonance frequency. Hence, that explains why observer will only hear the boom once and not many times as explained in the video (as long the aircraft is faster than the mach one). When it surpasses the overlapping crests to create the mach cone, the waves no longer compresses and thus shouldn't create the second or nth boom any longer, at least not until 2nd mach or nth mach where the crests overlapped again.

    Wonderful video sir.
    This doppler effect is very cool it helps you calculate the speed of a moving object simply by measuring the change in frequency.
    The change in frequency is corresponding to the speed of a moving object. Machines can easily measure the change in frequency.
    It is also used in medical science for looking at the flow and turbulence and other things.

    Ok that shrimp is pretty damn impressive! About sonic booms, my elementary school, which I’ve posted various comments about, was on the beach, sort of. Our playground was all sand, and to actually get to the water, all you’d have to do is walk a path about 25-35 feet long through some very low vegetation. Anyway, Air Force & Navy pilots often used to do practice flights over the Atlantic Ocean, and not too far from the school. And more than often they’d break the sound barrier and BOOM! All of the windows would shake and rattle. In fact, it became so common that we were eventually desensitized to it. And whenever it happened, we just ignored it. Still was pretty cool experience at such a young age.

    What would be a light boom ? :3

    • @arhamsyed4833
      @arhamsyed4833 Před 8 lety +12

      It's called Cherenkov radiation. It occurs when something travels faster than light in certain medium. It does not occur in space (which isn't a medium at all) because nothing can travel faster than light in space. Light has different speeds depending on what it is traveling in. For example, in water, light travels only at 75% at its speed in space. An object, such as an electron could be accelerated to a speed faster than light in water, therefore giving off Cherenkov radiation, or the "light equivalent" of a sonic boom!

      A "time boom" does not exist. The only way we know distorts space and time is a black hole. If a black hole is spinning, time happens slower near the event horizon. The black hole has SO MUCH gravity, that it will quite literally bend space and time.

      Penguin Design, a wave form whether longitudinal or transverse will have peaks and troughs, hence why they are called waves. Higher frequency sounds have shorter wavelengths than lower frequency sounds. Wavelength being the time between each peak and trough on the X-axis, where X=0. Peak being the same as crest.

    It doesn't take longer for the sound to reach your ears, or quicker for that matter. The waves are compressed and stretched, yes, which simply means longer and shorted wavelengths, which translates into higher and lower pitched sounds, depending on which direction it's traveling (towards or away from you).
