  2. Muzzle velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muzzle_velocity

    For projectiles in unpowered flight, its velocity is highest at leaving the muzzle and drops off steadily because of air resistance.Projectiles traveling less than the speed of sound (about 340 m/s (1,100 ft/s) in dry air at sea level) are subsonic, while those traveling faster are supersonic and thus can travel a substantial distance and even hit a target before a nearby observer hears the ...

  3. Black Flash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Flash

    During the Final Crisis, Wally theorizes that the Black Racer pursuing himself and Barry is in fact the Black Flash. A charred corpse, appearing to be the Black Flash, was found in Iowa by two boys in The Flash: Rebirth. [2] The Black Flash is sent hunting after the Force Barrier's destruction, killing Psych and attacking Steadfast and Fuerza. [3]

  4. Mach number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_number

    At Mach 0.65, u is 65% of the speed of sound (subsonic), and, at Mach 1.35, u is 35% faster than the speed of sound (supersonic). An F/A-18 Hornet creating a vapor cone at transonic speed just before reaching the speed of sound. The local speed of sound, and hence the Mach number, depends on the temperature of the surrounding gas.

    Declaring himself the "Black Flash", he hunts down and attacks Barry who manages to elude him for the moment. [16] When the Black Lantern Rogues attack Iron Heights, the living Thawne is encountered and the Black Lanterns' rings strangely malfunction, displaying a strange symbol . [ 17 ]

  6. Operation Plumbbob - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Plumbbob

    The operation consisted of 29 explosions, of which only two did not produce any nuclear yield.Twenty-one laboratories and government agencies were involved. While most Operation Plumbbob tests contributed to the development of warheads for intercontinental and intermediate range missiles, they also tested air defense and anti-submarine warheads with smaller yields.

  7. Max Mercury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Mercury

    Max is a human granted superhuman speed by ancient Native American rituals. His speed is enough that he can accelerate well beyond the standard Mach 1 super-speed limit, or the speed of sound; though he cannot reach escape velocity.

  8. Alfvén Mach number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfvén_Mach_number

    Alfvén and Mach were physicists who studied shock waves. Along with the sonic Mach number, the Alfvén Mach number is frequently used to characterize shock fronts [1] [2] [3] and turbulence [4] [5] in magnetized plasmas. [6] [7] = where M A is the Alfvén Mach number, u is the flow velocity, and

  9. Machmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machmeter

    Mach number is more useful, and most high-speed aircraft are limited to a maximum operating Mach number, also known as M MO. For example, if the M MO is Mach 0.83, then at 9,100 m (30,000 ft) where the speed of sound under standard conditions is 1,093 kilometres per hour (590 kn), the true airspeed at M MO is 906 kilometres per hour (489 kn).
