  2. Jet noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_noise

    The primary sources of jet noise for a high-speed air jet (meaning when the exhaust velocity exceeds about 100 m/s; 360 km/h; 225 mph) are "jet mixing noise" and, for supersonic flow, shock associated noise. Acoustic sources within the "jet pipe" also contribute to the noise, mainly at lower speeds, which include combustion noise, and sounds ...

  3. Aircraft noise pollution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_noise_pollution

    Noise-generating aircraft propeller. Aircraft noise is noise pollution produced by an aircraft or its components, whether on the ground while parked such as auxiliary power units, while taxiing, on run-up from propeller and jet exhaust, during takeoff, underneath and lateral to departure and arrival paths, over-flying while en route, or during landing.

  4. White noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_noise

    White noise draws its name from white light, [2] although light that appears white generally does not have a flat power spectral density over the visible band. An image of salt-and-pepper noise In discrete time , white noise is a discrete signal whose samples are regarded as a sequence of serially uncorrelated random variables with zero mean ...

    The pictures demonstrate the amazing visual effects that occur as military aircraft punch through the sound barrier and travel faster than sound itself. 11 photos of America's fighter jets ...

  6. Colors of noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise

    For example, with a white noise audio signal, the range of frequencies between 40 Hz and 60 Hz contains the same amount of sound power as the range between 400 Hz and 420 Hz, since both intervals are 20 Hz wide. Note that spectra are often plotted with a logarithmic frequency axis rather than a linear one, in which case equal physical widths on ...

    These machines often emit calming sounds like rainfall or the buzz of a fan, or calming static noises that are officially known as brown noise or pink noise. (While “white noise” is often used ...

  8. Sound barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_barrier

    The sound barrier or sonic barrier is the large increase in aerodynamic drag and other undesirable effects experienced by an aircraft or other object when it approaches the speed of sound. When aircraft first approached the speed of sound, these effects were seen as constituting a barrier, making faster speeds very difficult or impossible.
