"I think the X-59 could be significant," says Christopher Combs, University of Texas at San Antonio. "You are demonstrating for the first time with a real-world vehicle that you can make quiet sonic booms, and that can open the door for commercial industry to come in and start building ...
Even if you could make one work, doing so would combine the hazards of running a windmill in a hurricane with the pointlessness of hauling a wave machine to Oahu's North Shore. Ramjets take the basic principles of other jets and crank them up to 11, all without major moving parts. Air...
the echo to determine how fast something is going. It is therefore possible to create a "sound radar," and that is exactly what sonar is.Submarinesand boats use sonar all the time. You could use the same principles with sound in the air, but sound in the air has a couple of problems...
Therefore, the sound of the echo will have a higher pitch than the original sound you sent. If you measure the pitch of the echo, you can determine how fast the car is going. Sonic Boom While we're here on the topic of sound and motion, we can also understand sonic booms. Say the...
The intensity of a sonic boom can vary depending on several factors, including the size and shape of an aircraft, exactly how fast it is moving and whether it makes turns along its trajectory. But the altitude of the aircraft is key, since shock waves generated at high altitudes ne...
An LRAD system has lots of transducers in a staggered arrangement. The LRAD's job is to make sound — lots of sound. It produces a very loud sound that's audible over relatively long distances. But it's not limited to producing painful noise for use as a sonic weapon. It can also ...

If you bang a drum, you make the tight skin vibrate at very high speed (it's so fast that you can't usually see it), forcing the air all around it to vibrate as well. As the air moves, it carries energy out from the drum in all directions. Eventually, even the air inside your...
