On March 27, 2004, the United States successfully tested the hypersonic X-43A scramjet, which flew at Mach 7.0 (seven times the speed of sound) for 11 seconds. (A scramjet gets its oxygen directly from the air, rather than from fuel.) For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want to view a Video Tutor Solution of Swim competition. Part A At this rate, how many minutes would it take such a scramjet to carry passengers the approximately 5000 kmkm from San Francisco to New York? (Use 331 m/sm/s for the speed of soun

Explanation:

Speed of sound = 331 m /s

speed of jet = 7 .00 Mach = 7 times speed of sound

= 7 x 331 = 2317 m /s

distance to be covered = 5000 x 1000 = 5 x 10⁶ m

Time taken = distance / speed of jet

= 5 x 10⁶ / 2317

= 2.158 x 10³ s

= 35.96 minutes .

i think if it were me i whould divide 300 dide 15

step-by-step explanation:

it's when something is going so fast it makes a loud noise, breaking the sound barrier, for example: a jet makes a loud noise, not only cause of the jet but because they reached a point where they went so fast that you can year the noise from various parts, kinda like a police car, lets say the car was going   so fast that you hear the siren of the cop car right next to you, but the car is probably a mile a way, it's cos the siren was next to you a few seconds if you understand me
