AERONAUTICS When an airplane travels faster than the speed of sound, the sound waves
Chapter 4, Problem 95(choose chapter or problem)
AERONAUTICS When an airplane travels faster than the speed of sound, the sound waves form a cone behind the airplane. If the airplane is flying parallel to the ground, the sound waves intersect the ground in a hyperbola with the airplane directly above its center (see figure). A sonic boom is heard along the hyperbola. You hear a sonic boom that is audible along a hyperbola with the equation where and are measured in miles. What is the shortest horizontal distance you could be from the airplane?
